How do I setup an A record with Alternate UPN domain Suffix?
ADDS: Windows 2008 R2
Alternate UPN Suffix is already setup
Domain is (FQDN) ..... my.domain.com
Alternate UPN Suffix is ...... domain.com
By default when setting up an A record it uses the FQDN
But I want the alternate domain suffix
Help :)

You have to create the record in whatever zone has the right "suffix" (as you call it). If want a record for "web.domain.com", then create the A record in the "domain.com" zone, not in the "my.domain.com" zone.

Hi Footech,
The primary domain is... my.domain.com
It has a zone ...in... Forward Lookup Zones (DNS)
domain.com is an Alternate UPN Suffix (microsoft term not mine) for my.domain.com
Not a sub domain or a domain, it is a UPN Sufffix....basically a kindof alias
If unclear .... look in...Active Directory Domain and Trusts, right-click on the topmost level > properties > here you can add upn suffixes
Hope this helps clarify :)
Maybe a zone needs to created for it...but I see no choice for a upn suffix in the zone wizard

What exactly is the purpose you need this A record for? What are you trying to accomplish with the DNS record and the UPN suffix?
