wificonfig only works with ath v0.5 on the laptop community, can't
support other drivers, including iwk.
Please use dladm, it's very easy:

# dladm create-secobj -c mykey
-----> input your PSK same as AP <---------

# dladm connect-wifi -e ESSID -k mykey iwk0

Note that if you use WPA2-PSK, OpenSolaris 2008.05 is not enough, you
need upgrade to OpenSolaris build 93+.
If you use WPA-PSk, OpenSolaris 2008.05 is okay.

See above, wificonfig is not supported, please use dladm. ;-)
