Which DHCP server are you using?  In a previous message on this
thread, you hinted that you were using some other DHCP server -- not
the one in Solaris.

If you're using the Solaris DHCP server, the easiest way (by far) to
administer it is using the dhcpmgr GUI.  It's hidden over in
/usr/sadm/admin/bin/dhcpmgr.  (Note: you likely want a DHCP/BOOTP
server, not a relay.)

If you want to use the command line instead, then you need to use
pntadm to set the flags on a static client entry to 08 (BOOTP) to let
in.dhcpd know that this is an old-school BOOTP client.

Searching on google with "site:docs.sun.com dhcp bootp server" gives
this hit:
