Setting up DNS

Hello,

I am planning to buy my own domain name and I would like to configure my own DNS server to serve it.

How can I do that? Suppose my domain name is atwinix.com.

Anyone knows of a tutorial I can refer to? Most of which I looked at referred to setting up DNS for local LANs.

Your help is much appreciated.

Cheers,

atwinix
 
Yes, do read up on DNS before asking more detailed questions. Such very general (and generic) questions do not really belong here, because they're not FreeBSD-specific, nor in any other way specific, which leads to either empty or way-too-large threads.
 
Hi, you might want to try DJBDNS. It is easy to use, easy to install. It's in the ports (/usr/ports/dns) and you do need to understand dns regardless if you choose bind or djbdns or anything else.
