Did you click OK to create the record anyway?
That is a message Win2k popped up, just click OK to create the record
anyway, Win2k3 no longer gives the message.

If you created a host named localhost in your mydomain.com zone the FQDN of
that record would be localhost.mydomain.com. In the localhost zone its name
is just "localhost", with no domain suffix.
