Solved! It was one heck of a frustrating hunt for a silly oversight. Here was the setup for the problem.
I have a cable modem that provides a DHCP service for the connecting equipment (HW router, computer, etc.). I use an outside DNS service to route external traffic to my server. So, I pulled the HW box, plugged in the OpenSolaris service and rebooted the cable modem. Then I did things like try to send email to the server, connect vs. ssh, etc. but no luck. Then today it hit me... The cable box was giving me a new IP address but I forgot to tell the outside DNS service that I moved. I updated the DNS entries and voila! Everything is working. I figured that I'd document the fix in case someone has a similar problem.
