??? domainmart.net on 1 machine and www.domainmart.net on another server

[x at y.z.com]

I am trying to set up the nameserver for domainmart.net.
Initially, I would like www.domainmart.net to point to its current
location.

Eventually, I would like to host other domains (both domain.com and
www.domain.com). I would like to host domain.com even though it does not
have a tcp/ip address assigned to it and www.domain.com by pointing to
the location where it is really hosted, for example
http://www.Yahoo.com/domain .

I got 5 tcp/ip addresses assigned 63.202.70.186-63.202.70.190
my subnet mask = 255.255.255.248

56 ns1 ~ $ rpm -qa | grep -i bind
bind-8.2.1-7mdk

If I decide to use h2n, do I have the correct switches:

#h2n options for domainmart.net
#version 8
-v 8
#domain = domainmart.net
-d domainmart.net
#nameservers = ns1,2
-s ns1
-s ns2
#network = 63.202.70.186-63.202.70.190 or 63.202.70.184
#my subnet mask = 255.255.255.248
-n 63.202.70.184:255.255.255.248
#contact = gchiht at 2xtreme.net
-u gchiht.2xtreme.net

I created the following alias:
alias h2d 'pushd /var/named/ ; \
h2n -f /root/opt.txt ; kill -HUP `cat /var/run/named.pid` ;\
grep -i named /var/log/messages | tail -3 ; popd '

and executed it.

These are the contents of the directory:

  /var/named:
  total 16
  drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         1024 Mar 24 17:46 .
  drwxr-xr-x   22 root     root         1024 Jan  2  1999 ..
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root          171 Mar 24 17:46 boot.cacheonly
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root          193 Mar 24 17:46 db.127.0.0
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root          141 Mar 24 17:46
db.63.202.70.184
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root          182 Mar 24 17:46 db.domainmart
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root          322 Mar 24 17:46 named.boot
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root         2769 May 12  1999 named.ca
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root          413 Mar 24 13:47 named.local
(h2n MUST be executed in the directory were the db files reside,
otherwise it will create them in the directory where it is executed)

the nameserver function seems to be working:
111 ns1 ~ $ nslookup socrates.berkeley.edu 63.202.70.187 
Server:  adsl-63-202-70-187.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net
Address:  63.202.70.187

Name:    socrates.berkeley.edu
Address:  128.32.25.13

112 ns1 ~ $ nslookup uclink4.berkeley.edu 63.202.70.187 
Server:  adsl-63-202-70-187.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net
Address:  63.202.70.187

Name:    uclink4.berkeley.edu
Address:  128.32.25.39

I can send mail but cannot receive mail.

Also, can I put the www.domain.com entries in the hosts file and use h2n
to generate the corresponding nameserver files?

How do I park domain names that have not yet been assigned tcp/ip
addresses?

These are the nameserver files I got with the machine:

        // query-source address * port 53;
