Default IIS and host headers

I'm trying to get my site, running on IIS 6, to display without the WWW. I've added the host headers:
www.mydomain.com
and
mydomain.com
but mydomain.com isn't resolving.

Does anyone know how this is done on IIS?

Cheers louie, but I already know how to set host headers. I set the two of them up but only the one with the www is resolving. Is there something else I need to do I wonder? A records or anything?
