What implemntation of DHCP server are you using ? Under the ISC dhcp
server, you need to specifiy the max-lease time. I pasted a copy of my
dhcpd.conf cfg below.
FYI: I never used the dhcp server that ships with solaris.

proteus# cat dhcp.conf
option domain-name "test.com";
option domain-name-servers 172.16.0.181;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
subnet 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 172.16.0.128 172.16.0.129;
option broadcast-address 172.16.0.255;
option routers 172.16.0.1;
default-lease-time 6000;
max-lease-time 60000;
