NAME
       defaultdomain - specify host's domain name

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/defaultdomain

DESCRIPTION
       The  file /etc/defaultdomain determines a host's domain name for direct
       use by the NIS name service. The defaultdomain file  is	read  at  boot
       time  and  its  contents used by the domainname(1M) command. Because of
       its use by domainname, defaultdomain is also used by the	 LDAP  service
       (see    ldap(1)).    Under    certain,	 narrow	  circumstances	  (see
       resolv.conf(4)), because domainname uses defaultdomain,	a  DNS	client
       can use the contents of defaultdomain.

       The  contents  of  defaultdomain consists of a single line containing a
       host's domain name.

SEE ALSO
       uname(1), ldapclient(1M), ypbind(1M), ypinit(1M), resolv.conf(4)

NOTES
       The defaultdomain file is created and modified by Solaris  installation
       and  configuration  scripts.  Only  users knowledgeable of name service
       configuration should edit the file.
