This is a problem we have in a Microsoft DHCP/DNS server setup. When nwam gets
an IP address the DHCP server does not register (get a) a hostname. So there is
no DNS hostname registered to the opensolaris machine.
# nslookup opensolaris1
** server can't find opensolaris1: SERVFAIL
There is a workaround by editing dhcpagent (CLIENT_ID and REQUEST_HOSTNAME),
create /etc/hostname.INTERFACE and restart physical:nwam network, but it would
be nice if an option can be added to nwam properties.
# cp /etc/default/dhcpagent /etc/default/dhcpagent.orig
# sed -e s/#.*CLIENT_ID=/CLIENT_ID=opensolaris1/ \
-e 's/#.*REQUEST_HOSTNAME=no/REQUEST_HOSTNAME=yes/' \
/etc/default/dhcpagent.orig > /etc/default/dhcpagent
# diff /etc/default/dhcpagent /etc/default/dhcpagent.orig

It would be great if this could be done automatically!!
