Need To Install a DNS Server


I want to create an intranet in my local network. I want a DNS server which every client PC using DNS Server IP, can resolve when entering domain name in the browser. Can anyone show me how to configure DNS? Assume that I use BIND9 in CentOS 5.3.

This is example:
I have a DNS Server(Web Server) as CentOS which has IP address 192.168.111.1. When I configure DNS Server IP address in client PC, I can enter domain name (exmaple.com) in web browser of client PC and DNS Server resolve that domain.

So what I want is configure BIND by adding a domain and point it to an ip address. So client PC will use that server as DNS.

For gui you can use the webmin, www.webmin.com

install the rpm and the required http://download.webmin.com/download/...s/bind8.wbm.gz package.

Then to connect (from lan or localy) open your browser and use http://serverip:10000

Webmin is good. But I don't mind to hear about the others. Thanks everyone.
