When you built the server, did you have a Sun console on it?
What is connected (if anything) to port A when you have to put your laptop on it? Do you have a Sun console and keyboard on it? Can you post the output of printenv from the Open Boot Prompt (ok prompt)?

unicode_start
UNICODE_START(1) General Commands Manual UNICODE_START(1)
NAME
unicode_start - put keyboard and console in unicode mode
SYNOPSIS
unicode_start [font [umap]]
DESCRIPTION
The unicode_start command will put the keyboard and console into Unicode (UTF-8) mode.
For the keyboard this means that one can attach 16-bit U+xxxx values to keyboard keys using loadkeys(1), and have these appear as UTF-8
input to user programs. Also, that one can type hexadecimal Alt-xxxx using the numeric keypad, and again produce UTF-8.
For the console this means that the kernel expects UTF-8 output from user programs, and displays the output accordingly.
The parameter font is a font that is loaded. It should have a built-in Unicode map, or, if it hasn't, such a map can be given explicitly as
second parameter. When no font was specified, the current font is kept.
NOTE
Unicode mode is a parameter with a value per virtual console. However, usually the font and keymap is common to all consoles.
