Abstract

The list of all the possible Internet host names and aliases for the machine on which LISTSERV is running.

 

Examples

VM:   MYDOMAIN = 'LISTSERV.XYZ.COM WWW.XYZ.COM VM.IGATE.XYZ.COM'

      MYDOMAIN = NODE 'WWW.XYZ.COM VM.IGATE.XYZ.COM'

VMS:  MYDOMAIN "LISTSERV.XYZ.COM WWW.XYZ.COM VMS.IGATE.XYZ.COM"

unix: MYDOMAIN="LISTSERV.XYZ.COM WWW.XYZ.COM UNIX.IGATE.XYZ.COM"

      MYDOMAIN="$NODE WWW.XYZ.COM UNIX.IGATE.XYZ.COM"

Win:  MYDOMAIN=LISTSERV.XYZ.COM WWW.XYZ.COM NT2.IGATE.XYZ.COM

      MYDOMAIN=%NODE% WWW.XYZ.COM NT2.IGATE.XYZ.COM

 

Details

Usually this is the same as NODE, however you can supply additional names if your machine operates several services under different host names. For instance, if your machine operates WWW and FTP servers in addition to LISTSERV, under the hostnames WWW.XYZ.COM and FTP.XYZ.COM, you may want to list these names in MYDOMAIN. Similarly, if you operate the LISTSERV service under a hostname such as LISTSERV.XYZ.COM, while the machinereal name is NT2.IGATE.XYZ.COM, you will want to list the real name in MYDOMAIN because some unix machines will automatically substitute it for the published name.
