DNS Server on my Debian Box

Hi

I am looking for an easy way to configure my server with DNS
I have installed Bind, but am not sure how I configure it. My pc configuration is as follows:

router (Linksys ADSL) 192.168.1.2 running DHCP but the server and clients have static IP's

"server" 192.168.1.100 running debian unstable
"client1" 192.168.1.101 dualboot XP/Debian
"client2" 192.168.1.102 dualboot XP/Debian

How do I set this up ?

there is a dns-howto at ldp which you may use. i sat up bind-9.x with minor
modifications to that. use the notify no -option if you use names and have a connection to the internet.

ps: add 86400 at the beginning after the @ (or better: but "$TTL 86400" in the first row) of your db-files if you get errors about "using TTL..." (or something like that) in your daemon.log.
