Actually rc.sysinit doea not set nisdomainname, I wrote 3 line to add to the script in order to set it.
Is a diff result so it can be used with patch

I made a mistake in my suggestion, it is not $HOSTNAME, but should be something like $NISDOMAINNAME.
There are several ways to set NISDOMAINNAME variable, the most simple one is by rc.conf.
Another way (and the best one) is to obtain it from the /etc/yp.conf

I wrote again wrongly, please read /etc/yp.conf as /etc/defaultdomain

There's now a /etc/conf.d/nisdomainname setting.
