who suggested to upgrade ALOM to version 1.6.x and to make sure that
/etc/nodename has the correct entry in it.
Unfortunately after upgrading to ALOM 1.6.3, OBP 4.16.4 and installing Solaris 10
6/06 I still can not change the displayed name in the ALOM login, ie.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Please login:
Serial line login timeout, returns to console stream.
Enter #. to return to ALOM.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I will continue to fight with this and if successful I will post the
fix.
