I just did that but only for a home network.  I scaned parts of 
DNS and Bind 4th edtion and used the section  "Setting Up Zone Data"
examples to create my zone files.

I also used the examples on this site:
    http://www.madboa.com/geek/soho-bind/#whylocaldns

but the DNS Bind examples are better.
