Where is one supposed to write the domain name?
Nowhere! The domain name belongs to an active network device. Only the domain name of a YP/NIS domain can be set. And this active network device is used to ask the domain name server for the FQDN of the system.
That's a fair answer, thanks.
Next question: then what was the purpose of the domain entry box in Leap 15.0 and all previous versions since I remember?
