[maemo-users] hostname and domainname

Is it possible to set the hostname and domainname? Will anything break?
What is the best way to do this? Modifying /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname or
using the hostname command? Will anything break if I modify /etc/resolv.conf
to have a "search <domain>" entry? What is the equivalent of the supersede
domain-name entry of /etc/dhclient.conf? What is the equivalent of
/etc/mailname? What is the equivalent of dc_other_hostnames and dc_readhost
of /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf? What is the equivalent of dns-search in
in /etc/network/interfaces?
