I use to use BINd for DNS now I am using Microsoft DNs
server I have a domain which I host its records.
I have thisdomain.com in my DNS server, but I can only add
www for the web address.eg I can only resolve
www.thisdomain.com and I cannot resolve thisdomain.com. In
BINd I use to just add the "." for the thisdomain.com. How
can I do this in MS DNS.

Rt-click the zone name, add new Host record, leave the host name portion
blank and give it an IP address. If it barks at you with a message saying it
doesn't like it, ignore it.
