Ahem..

The FQDN  in the hosts   fileonly gets rid of  the warning message,  
it does not fix  the  real problem .  
  The real problem is  that you cant really use  your  SMTP  server  until  you 
  set up the responsible DNS  server with A  records and MX records for the 
 new SMTP  server.

Just give it a full name in /etc/hosts.

[I dunno what is so difficult with this, we've had this problem for ages. IMHHO 
the install ought to do this out of the box; or solve it any other way.]

Hi

  If you want to run a  SMTP  MTA  like sendmail  it needs a working DNS server,
  in which your server is Declared  with an A record and an MX record. 
  If you dont have a properly configured DNS server you cant  run a  SMTP MTA. 

  Thats  why sendmail  complains. 

  If you dont what to run sendmail   turn it off. 

 # svcs -a | grep sendmail 
online 19:36:48 svc:/network/smtp:sendmail
# svcadm disable network/smtp 
# svcs -a | grep sendmail
disabled   20:12:57 svc:/network/smtp:sendmail
