The search domain is what will be appended to hostnames, when you do things using just the hostname. e.g. "ping testname" would become "ping testname.opennic.glue". If hostnames resolve, by themselves. Or your the rest of your networking works perfectly (name resolution, etc., etc.), and your domain name is the same as you'd otherwise have put into the search parameter, then you probably won't see an advantage in manually setting it. But if hostnames don't resolve without the domain name being appended, or you want a different domain name to be appended, then it is an advantage to set that. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
