Solaris is very picky about the spelling of objectclasses, try 
"objectclass=nisDomainObject". This is how our entry looks:

dc=rentec,dc=com
o=rentec
nisDomain=rentec.com
associatedDomain=rentec.com
dc=rentec
objectClass=top
objectClass=organization
objectClass=nisDomainObject
objectClass=domainRelatedObject
objectClass=dcObject
