You probably won't believe me but athlon64.domain_not_set.invalid is a valid name for your computer.
This name consists of 3 parts:
  1. athlon64 : the local host name
  2. domain_not_set : the domain name
  3. invalid : the Top Level Domain (TLD) name

If you configure a zone file for "domain_not_set.invalid" for your private nameserver 192.168.1.1 it will even resolve.
