As far as I can tell, this is the way to set NIS domain in RHEL/Fedora.

authconfig cannot set NIS domain only, it does unwanted additional magic like
enabling rpcbind and ypbind services etc.

Alternative is to drop sysctl file to /etc but I do not like it because it
would not be the Red Hat standard way of doing NIS domain config.

Opinions?
