Dear Sun managers,
Just after posting the question, I found an info doc on SUNsolve.
The solution was to do a ifconfig qe3 plumb to let the streams know
its there!
ifconfig -a reported the interface.
I added an entry to /etc/hosts and created a /etc/hostname.qe3 file
containing the ip address.
I then touch'd a /etc/notrouter file to prevent in.routed -s from
starting.
Rebooted the system and both network connections came up.
