First you will have to install the bind rpm on your cd's.
Then there are a few files to configure after installing -
rndc.conf and named.conf in your /etc directory.
PHP Code:
/*
* Sample rndc.conf file
*/
options {
default-server 72.96.52.127;
default-key "rndc_key";
};
server localhost {
key "rndc_key";
};
key "rndc_key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "32cQo34LF0JheZAvud/z+g==";
};
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
PHP Code:
/*
* Sample named.conf file
*/
options {
directory "/var/named/";
};
key rndc_key {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "32cQo34LF0JheZAvud/z+g==";
};
controls {inet 72.96.52.127 port 953 allow {localhost;} keys {rndc_key;}
; };
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.zone";
};
zone "localhost" {
type master;
file "localhost.zone";
};
zone "bogus25.com" {
type master;
file "bogus25.com.zone";
};
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Note that the secret key must match in both rndc.conf and named.conf *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
next you will need to add a zone file to your /var/named directory
on the fly something like this:~ bogus25.com.zone ~
PHP Code:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA ns1.bogus25.com. support.bogus25.com. (
20010923; Serial
10800 ; Refresh after 3hrs
3600 ; Retry after 1 hr
604800 ; Expire in 1 week
86400 ) ; Minimum ttl 1 day
IN NS ns1.bogus25.com.
bogus25.com. IN A 72.96.52.127
www IN CNAME bogus25.com.
ftp IN CNAME bogus25.com.
mail IN A 72.96.52.127
IN MX 10 mail
bogus25.com. IN MX 10 mail.bogus25.com.

If your are running dns for the internet and not an intranet you will have to register your domain name as a host using your static ip(s) with your domain registrar. ex: ns1.yourdomain.com
I have attached a little demo for Linux DNS server for local network.
