domainname dnsdomainname....etc ??

is there a variable that controls whether the settings of the domainname and dnsdomainame, nisdomaname and hostname are global or local (as in static).. i keep setting the values for these commands and after a while they disappear. how can I keep one static value that will remain even after I have logged out and logged back in.. i know you have to su to change and and i you have to use the /etc/hosts for dnsdomainname change but I still keep getting the same results.. when Iog out and log back in they have disappeared..
any feedback welcome.
