Package: nis
Version: 3.17-6
Severity: minor

When an "option nis-domain" ist set via a DHCP server, there is no need for
the file /etc/defaultdomain (in addition, dpkg -S does not know this file).
So, if the command "domainname" succeeds AND the file /etc/defaultdomain
doesn't exist, the nis-domain should be the output of "domainname".

In this manner, a single read-only (NFS-rooted, for example) Debian System
easily can be used in different NIS domains.
