Yep. For a minimalist domain, I usually set up anything other than mail.name.com and ftp.name.com to go to the webserver. So, typing "www.name.com" "name.com" and "bananafloat32.name.com" would all send you to www.name.com.

You don't have to do it that way. I've even run across a site that deliberately configured name.com to direct you to a page that chastized you for failing to type in the leading www.
