 There is a file /etc/resolv.conf, and it has a "domain" and "search"
part, it should contain your domain name, i.e. the tld to which your
hostname belongs.  Then there is a /etc/hosts file, in it you put your 
hostname, along with the name "localhost" and your FQDN (Fully
Qualified Domain Name)...

 For what do you need to set your domain name, beyond just for
convenience?
