It depends on what services they are running. At my last job there was
one service for which all domains had exacttly the same records. It
made sense to point all those domains at a static single zone file.

That being said - there were many thousands of zones on the name
servers.

You ftp top the location of the directory used to serve your domain. 

For instance:

/home/leo/htdocs/dom1
/home/leo/htdocs/dom2 

That config is done in Apache and you could look here for a sample:
