This should contain your hostname, not the IP !
Be sure to put this 'IP hostname' in /etc/hosts !
This is a good idea, but mostly for manageability (one place to change
the name/IP address for several reasons you might need that change).
Otherwise, technically, using explicit numbers is okay.
It seems that the ISP did provide an 8-address block of routable IP
addresses, so the default /24 netmask assigned to the interface is
not correct (though it is not quite a problem unless you need to
contact hosts on other ranges of the subnet). To fix this properly
you'd need to update the /etc/netmasks file with this entry:
69.146.183.56 255.255.255.248
To apply the change "svcadm restart physical:default" should suffice.
You can then verify the result in "ifconfig" output - the netmask on
bnx0 should change from ffffff00 to fffffff8.

No, don't remove this ! You had it right.

This should not happen with nwam and dhcp disabled, you
may mixed up something here. Reboot to be sure that all
the automatic stuff is really gone.

You MUST use the correct /etc/nsswitch.conf for dns ,
otherwise it WILL fail.

This looks like its correct.
... if the given address 192.168.0.151 does host a DNS server to
resolve both local names (apparently, in the .ds top-level private
domain) and internet names :)
