You have a few options.

- http://www.isc.org/index.pl?/sw/bind/index.php - look at the
Administrator Reference Manual.

- Have a look at the default configuration under /var/named/etc/ and
/var/named/master/; the configuration is essentially already in place
(all  you need to do is add your zone data) and you've got a
functioning DNS server which is authoritative for your zone(s).

- Pick up the book DNS and BIND
(http://www.amazon.com/DNS-BIND-5th-Cricket-Liu/dp/0596100574) which
is a nearly necessary reference for BIND administrators.

- Follow relevant advice from
http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-bind-template.html if you want
additional hardening instructions / best practice for your server.
