Anybody know what the maximum string-length of a computer (hostname) can be in Windows?

Here is the data from Windows Help:

If you specify a Computer Name longer than 15 characters, and you want longer names to be
recognized by the Active Directory domain, the domain administrator must enable registration
of DNS names that are 16 bytes or more.

I don't know if this helps or not.
