Actually, domainname and ypdomainname appear to be the same things:

HOSTNAME(1)                Linux Programmer’s Manual               HOSTNAME(1)

NAME
       hostname - show or set the system’s host name
       domainname - show or set the system’s NIS/YP domain name
       dnsdomainname - show the system’s DNS domain name
       nisdomainname - show or set system’s NIS/YP domain name
       ypdomainname - show or set the system’s NIS/YP domain name
