So firstly I need to know whether Genkernel is incorrectly naming the

Question: How am I going to fix this? I don't want to hard code anything in

Yep, should be configured as well. But as you can see there, it doesn't

So, where is it set then? The /etc/conf.d/domainname is in my system.
Why isn't it removed if it is obsolete?
