You're not going to get any decent replies with a wishy-washy question
like that. We're all too busy. :)

Search the web. Look at the documentation with the bind package (from
www.isc.org). Go buy DNS&Bind Edition 4 (O'Reilly) which will actually
tell you pretty much all you need to know about DNS. It's an excellent
book.
