How to set a global database name?

From: Hilbert <850593_at_mirl.itri.org.tw>

According to Oracle's documentation, a database's global database name is comprised of two parts:
a name component (DB_NAME) and a network domain component (DB_DOMAIN).

For example, if DB_NAME = sales and DB_DOMAIN = mirl.com.tw, the global database name is sales.mirl.com.tw.

I have set the DB_NAME and DB_DOMAIN to the above values in parameter file. But the results retrieved by "select * from global_name;" is sales.world.
(world is the default value of DB_DOMAIN)

Is there any thing wrong? How to change the DB_DOMAIN of a database?
(I am running Oracle 7.3.3 on NT.)
