In the DNS table you need an entry for domain.com.  If memory
serves me correctly, it needs to be after all the host.domain.com's.

Such as:
computer1.domain.com
computer2.domain.com
domain.com

So if it doesn't find the specific machine it will default to one.  This is in
the MX and A records.  You can have 2 DNS's for the same machine,
so you can have computer1.domain.com and domain.com point to the
same IP address.

Regards,

Jim Langston
