Just use "kevin" or whatever you call your machine in DNS.  I will bet
that XSELL is the NT authentication domain which is not (repeat NOT)
the same as a DNS domain.

(I usually avoid MS bashing but) If you think the above is confusing,
just wait until you see what those bastards have done in NT5 with
their Active Directory domains.  Major confusion with DNS...
