Just to clarify, the latter line in the example above (starting with @) would bomb, since the period at the end would terminate the name of the CNAME ref, and so the mycompany.com domain name would not be appended. You'd want either

@ IN CNAME www.mycompany.com.

// OR //

@ IN CNAME www

I prefer to set it the other way around, EG:

@ IN A 1.2.3.4 www IN CNAME @

and then set up apache with ServerAlias for the www.domain.com entry.
