To add to the info the previous commenters supplied:

You can have a series of domain names to use for lookups.  For example,
some bits of Sun might use "sfbay.sun.com sun.com", meaning to look for
host.sfbay.sun.com, and then host.sun.com if the first lookup fails. 
Here at home I use i.mcintyreweb.com (for hosts inside NAT) and then
mcintyreweb.com (for some other non-NAT hosts).

This is not at all common though.  Unless you have a very unusual setup, 
you probably only want a single domain, if that.

Hugh.
