6 Besides using the incorrect format for the files, your dnsdomainname should
7 not include the hostname:
8
9 cornholio ~ # cat /etc/conf.d/hostname
10 # /etc/conf.d/hostname
11 # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/hostname,v 1.2.4.1

14 # Set to the hostname of this machine
15 HOSTNAME="cornholio"

18 # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/domainname,v
