I've had my AMD 64 box running for a few days, but I just noticed that at the login screen it says "Welcome to GOETHALS.UNKNOWN_DOMAIN". Right before that though, it says "Setting DNSDOMAINNAME to albrookdata.com." I've checked my resolv.conf file as well as my /etc/hosts, /etc/conf.d/domainname, and /etc/conf.d/hostname and they all seem ok. Here is the contents of the files:

/etc/resolv.conf
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
domain albrookdata.com
nameserver 201.225.225.225
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

/etc/hosts
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# /etc/hosts:  This file describes a number of hostname-to-address
#              mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem.  It is mostly
#              used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
#              On small systems, this file can be used instead of a
#              "named" name server.  Just add the names, addresses
#              and any aliases to this file...

# When setting up resolv.conf, what should take precedence?
# If you wish to always override DHCP/whatever, set this to 1.
# OVERRIDE=1

# To have a proper FQDN, you need to setup /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf
# properly (domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf, and FQDN in /etc/hosts).
#
DNSDOMAIN="albrookdata.com"

# This only set what /bin/hostname returns. If you need to setup NIS, meaning
# what /bin/domainname returns, please see:

/etc/conf.d/hostname

# /etc/conf.d/hostname

# Set to the hostname of this machine
HOSTNAME="goethals"

I am sure i am making an obvious mistake, but I just can't see what it is. Any ideas?
I'd really appreciate any help. :)
