Flar create question (over jumpstart)

Hi there

I have created a flash archive using flarcreate and rolled out via jumpstart
and everything seems fine, however when I roll out the archive to another box,
everything is fine apart from the /etc/hosts file which is the same as the
masters hosts file (i.e. it still has the original hostname and IP for the
master) and as such the network interface doesn't come up

The strange thing is, the following files have been set with the new hostname
successfully ....its just the /etc/hosts file that hasn't changed

/etc/hostname
/etc/hostname.hme0
/etc/net/ticlts/hosts
/etc/net/ticotssord/hosts
/etc/net/ticots/hosts

This obviously has the effect of the cloned box trying to come up with the
masters IP and hostname, but failing to do so because the above files were
correctly populated with the hostname given by jumpstart

The command I used to create the archive was

Flarcreate -n "Solaris 8 build" -c /data/archive.flar

I did actually have this working fine a while back, but I lost the complete
flarcreate command I used.Is there anything glaringly obvious that is casing
the /etc/hosts file to remain

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Gary
