That is the YP domain name. The Internet domain name is the part of your hostname after the first dot. It may also be listed in /etc/resolv.conf, but be aware that the use of the `domain' directive there is deprecated in favor of `searchlist'. If your hostname is not fully-qualified, then something has made an error in setting up your machine. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
