If it is not in the man pages or the how-to's this is the place!

I am running FC9 and have tried to read the MAN pages but am having trouble setting up a local DNS server to resolve address on my local network. Every time I try to PING a local machine by name I get the loopback interface as an IP address and my public DNS servers as the site. I have found out that a local DNS server can resolve my local machine names and forward anything else to the public DNS servers. I am also running DHCP which is working well. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
