retrieving name of the domain   

I can't find a way of retrieving the name of the domain a machine is in. 
I can find things like LookupAccountName() but that seems to require the 
domain, so it is circular in my case.
Does anyone know how to retrieve the windows domain of the local machine.
Thanks,
Tom

Thank you. I would never have thought to look there. I was digging 
through AD stuff.
Thanks,
Tom
