did you do an image-update, or something that creates a different BE?
if that has happened and you modify configuration files in /etc they
will be altered in the currently booted BE, not in the one that will
be booted after a shutdown.

"beadm list" should enable you to see the "boot environments" you have
on your system and with beadm you should be able to mount those
environments to check if the config files are set in those instances.

It confused me a few times ...
