[dom] adds directives appropriate for the most common scenarios.  You 
should use [domain] instead if you want the domain to live primarily 
elsewhere.  Switching [dom] to [domain] should leave your configuration 
almost complete.  You will need to add nameserver information to end up 
with a valid overall record, and you should be able to consult the 
DomTool/Examples wiki page for that.
