Yes it does.
The hostname is the first bit of a DNS entry.
hostname.domain.extension.

Example :
An Active Directory environment with domain name mydomain.local.
A computer is named pc1.
That computer will register itself in DNS with it's hostname pc1 and
will then be known as pc1.mydomain.local.

My DNS server is a Windows 2003 machine running Microsoft DNS service.
