[systemd-devel] How do you set the machine's domain name with systemd?

[Larry Baker]

On my Arch Linux ARM system, everything can be set in /etc/network.d/wired-eth0.  By default, the version of /etc/network.d/wired-eth0 is for DHCP.  I switched that to the version for a fixed IP address first:

> # cd /etc/network.d
> # mv wired-eth0{,.orig}
> # cp examples/ethernet-static ./wired-eth0

Then I customized it for my system (IPv4 only):

> # vi /etc/network.d/wired-eth0

> # Set DECnet MAC address for host address 54.147, ALLMULTI
> PRE_UP='ip link set eth0 address AA:00:04:00:93:D8 allmulticast on'

> NETMASK='255.255.252.0'
> #ROUTES=('192.168.0.0/24 via 192.168.1.2')
