domainname now returns "(none)"
/etc/conf.d/net.example talks about setting up dns_domain but if
this is
used, it overwrites /etc/resolv.conf.
So how is the domainname now set?

/etc/hosts ?
Well, perhaps. It is in my /etc/hosts. But domainname still returns
(none)
Tony
You should stop using /etc/hostname and use /etc/conf.d/hostname
I don't use /etc/hostname and I DO use /etc/conf.d/hostname. What has
this to do with the domainname? Are they both set there?
Tony
I thought domainname was set in /etc/hosts.
No, it's not. NIS doesn't use /etc/hosts for these things.
Here is my /etc/conf.d/hostname:
# Set to the hostname of this machine
HOSTNAME="uilleann.fancypiper.info"
That's not a hostname. A hostname has no dots (.).
