The Solaris client will choose the DNS domain (if DNS is being used for
host resolution).  It will use the NIS domain if DNS is not being=20
used.  These can be overridden by setting the NFSMAPID_DOMAIN value
in /etc/default/nfs on Solaris.

The Soalris client will also use a DNS TXT RR record to obtain
the NFSv4 domain but at this point Solaris is the only platform
that does this (that I know of).
