    maybe i have the question wrong because, I pick something like computer_name.DCOA1.west.treyresearch.com.
    you might be right or maybe i didn't understand the question. I hope i score 80%, to get an interview.

    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.

    I think you are both wrong, based on the diagram.

    It is a trick. West is a sub-domain of east. The correct answer is:

    DCOA1.west.east.treyresearch.com

    If the answer were DCOA1.west.treyresearch.com then east and west would be peers, on the same level directly under treyresearch.com

    EDIT: Here is an image to illustrate the point.

    The diagram is wrong. "west.treyresearch.com" is shown as a child domain of "east.treyresearch.com", which is not allowed since they are at the same level in the hierarchy. They should both be shown as child domains one level below "treyresearch.com".

    +1. I was thinking that was a bit off too.

    Hah! That is correct. Kind of. Why not assume the text is wrong? I was thrown off by that. This is in fact an impossible question based on the diagram and legend.

    I probably couldn't remember the question but i think the question worth 10 point or so. But, the good new is -- I have an interview:) Thanks guys.
