It looks like the first DNS server is part of the corporate network and could even be on the same subnet if the netmask has been set too tight.

Does running a:
Code:
# netstat -rn

report the expected default router?

Can traceroute and/or ping reach Google

here is the output of netstar -rn and traceroute
Code:

If nslookup resolves www.google.com but not traceroute, you might have a hosts entry missing the dns service in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file.

Quite overkill and quite an old release too.

I would suggest you to install a recent Solaris Express or OpenSolaris release instead.
