Please, can anyone tell me where to fix this or when it
broke?

-------- Original Message --------

When did `domainname` start producing "(none)" as the output?
I have looked through all the startup rc files and can not find
a place to change this back to the way it was.  A blank/empty result
or the NIS value of domain name.  I also looked in /etc/sysconfig
for clues but came up empty handed.  Can somebody point me in the
right direction?



/etc/sysconfig/network:

NISDOMAIN=yourdomainname


ypserver & domain also need to be defined in /etc/yp.conf.

Thanks Toby, but the setting I am looking for is nearly the
reverse of your solution.  I need the domainname command to
return "" instead of "(none)".  I found in the rc.sysinit
where hostname is tested for "(none)" and if true sets the
hostname to localhost.  I did not realize hostname had also
acquired this deficiency.  What I had to do was add a command
to rc.sysinit forcing `domainname ""`.  This provides me with
a solution, but not an answer.

I do appreciate that you took the time to answer though.

Thanks,
Dan Liston
