put the fully qualified domain name into /etc/hostname.  Unlike in Red Hat, Debian actually retains the information stored there.  It doesn't try to 
change it.

echo prince.homelinux.org >/etc/hostname

did it for me.

Thus spake Jes and guide dog Harley:
> Hi all. How does one go about setting the domain name of a debian system, in other words whether it's a .com, .net. etc. Thanks.
