one way is to capture the existing config. do sys-unconfig. after the system reboots, it will bring you through the "installation" process where it asks you the ip, netmask, services, domain etc. you can specify it then.
If im not wrong, you're asking how to join a domain right?
or you can do this method:-
cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain xx.xx.org
nameserver 192.168.2.1
search sspg.central.sun.com central.sun.com
Now, set up /etc/nsswitch.conf so that hosts are resolved via DNS. You can modify you existing/etc/nsswitch.conf file or just copy /etc/nsswitch.dns to /etc/nsswitch.conf.

nss-systemd
NSS-SYSTEMD(8) nss-systemd NSS-SYSTEMD(8)
NAME
nss-systemd, libnss_systemd.so.2 - Provide UNIX user and group name resolution for dynamic users and groups.
SYNOPSIS
libnss_systemd.so.2
DESCRIPTION
nss-systemd is a plug-in module for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality of the GNU C Library (glibc), providing UNIX user and
group name resolution for dynamic users and groups allocated through the DynamicUser= option in systemd unit files. See systemd.exec(5) for
details on this option.
This module also ensures that the root and nobody users and groups (i.e. the users/groups with the UIDs/GIDs 0 and 65534) remain resolvable
at all times, even if they aren't listed in /etc/passwd or /etc/group, or if these files are missing.
To activate the NSS module, add "systemd" to the lines starting with "passwd:" and "group:" in /etc/nsswitch.conf.
It is recommended to place "systemd" after the "files" or "compat" entry of the /etc/nsswitch.conf lines so that /etc/passwd and /etc/group
based mappings take precedence.
EXAMPLE
Here is an example /etc/nsswitch.conf file that enables nss-systemd correctly:
passwd: compat mymachines systemd
group: compat mymachines systemd
shadow: compat
hosts: files mymachines resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns myhostname
networks: files
protocols: db files
services: db files
ethers: db files
rpc: db files
netgroup: nis
