NAME

domainname − set or display name of the current YP domain

SYNOPSIS

domainname [ name-of-domain ]

DESCRIPTION

Without an argument, domainname displays the name of the current domain, which typically encompasses a group of hosts under the same administration.  As such, the name of a YP domain is normally also a valid Internet domain name, and can be used in conjunction with the sendmail(1M) and the name server named(1M). 

Only the super-user can set the name of the domain, by giving domainname an argument; this is usually done in the startup script /etc/rc.
