It is just like any other A record in the sample.com zone file.

sample.com. 86400 IN A 123.123.123.123

It is best to put it after the SOA, and NS records for the
domain, then you can leave off the name, as it is one of a set.

This is adequately explained many times in the archives of this
group, a quick search at www.deja.com would have revealed the
answer to your question. 

The webserver must also be told it must serve the new name in
most cases.
