the svcs infrastructure was introduced in Solaris 10, so you don't have it in Solaris 9. If you add sth. to /etc/hosts, you shouldn't need to do anything to "refresh" the config - as soon as the file is changed, hostname lookups that refer to /etc/hosts should pick them up. You need to make sure /etc/nsswitch.conf contains "file" in the "hosts" line. For the details please consult the man-pages.
