From the manpage:
  domainname - show or set the system's NIS/YP domain name
  dnsdomainname - show the system's DNS domain name
  nisdomainname - show or set system's NIS/YP domain name
  ypdomainname - show or set the system's NIS/YP domain name
Notice the difference between the first two lines? ;-) If you set right
variables in /etc/conf.d/domainname then add domainname to the boot
runlevel with "rc-update add domainname boot".

If you have the modules then load them in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
