At about the time of 3/23/2007 11:06 AM, Michael B Allen stated the
following:
Can anyone recommend a portable way of getting the domain name of the
local machine? I find it amazing that there's no builtin method for
doing this (gethostname does not necessarily contain the domain).

I had the exact same problem a few years ago. I wrote a tool to do just
that. I'm running FreeBSD, so I just do this:
DOMAINNAME="`hostname | domain`"
That's using FreeBSD's version of Borne Shell.
Since yours is adding a period on the end, you will have to modify the
source to strip the period out. I have the source code posted on source
forge.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ipdomaintools/
Hope this helps.
