Simple question about zone and CNAME

[Thomas Manson]

Hi,

 I'd like use CNAME record on my zone.

 I'm able to have this config:

for http://www.mysite.com

www IN CNAME  somehost.com

but I can't do

for http://mysite.com
@  IN CNAME somehost.com

How can I achive this configuration ?
Is there another way to specify the address of http://mysite.com ?

I would like to avoid pointing on an IP adress directly as I'm managing a
few hundred of domain and among them, I don't manage some domain of some
client, which is then very painful and time consuming to make them do some
change.

Regards,
Thomas.
