Hi, 

I am Assumeing now that you want a Fixed NON-DHCP  IP Adress on a WIRED 
connection the a Ethernet NIC. 


   NWAM  should  stay disabled after you run 

# svcadm disable network/physical:nwam 
# svcadm enable network/physical:default 

It should not be spontaneously  active  after each reboot. 
If that happends   you have a screewd up system that you probably need 
to reinstall.

  -------------------------

  As Long as you have the /etc/dhcp.interfacename  file   on the system , the 
box  tries to do DHCP  allocation of the Ip address  every time  it  boots. 

As I said  above.   DELETE  /etc/dhcp.interfacename    if you desire to run 
with a fixed 
IP address.   

You cant have  DHCP  and FIXED IP Address simultaneoulsy. 

As I said above  :  /etc/hostname.inferfacename   needs  to have A pointer in 
it 
to the fixed hostname  in  the /etc/hosts   file. 

if /etc/hosts   contain : 

123.123.123.123          myhost.mydomain.com   myhost 


/etc/hostname.interfacename    need to contain a single line with : 

myhost 


/etc/netmasks   must have  the  netmask for you network . 

if you network  is   192.168.1.0       /etc/netmasks  should contain the 
one-liner 

192.168.1.0         255.255.255.0 


PLEASE  READ the MANUAL  !!!!
