		<function moreinfo="none">ul_register_domain(name)</function>
	    </title>
	    <para>
		The function registers a new domain. Domain is just another name for table used in
		registrar. The function is called from fixups in registrar. It gets name of the
		domain as a parameter and returns pointer to a new domain structure. The fixup than
		'fixes' the parametr in registrar so that it will pass the pointer instead of the
		name every time save() or lookup() is called. Some usrloc functions get the pointer
		as parameter when called. For more details see implementation of save function in
		registrar.
