Gack! That wasn't wise. The official Sun word is that you're supposed to use sys-unconfig which has a man page. The hostname is recorded in many places such as:
/etc/hostname.hme0 (or whatever you have for a network card)
/etc/nodename
and about 10 other files. I have used the sys-unconfig method ever since I got burnt doing it by hand.
And you should just ignore the TIME_WAITS. Each one goes away in a few minutes. They do not hurt performance.
