3 questions:

what do you mean setting up DNS?
are you talking as in setting up a DNS server?
or just useing DNS?

Oreilly has a really good book on DNS and BIND. i would go take a look at it very informative.

ps -ef | grep name it shows that dns is running but when i do

domainname nothing shows up

i am going by the naming and directory services by sun

http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/802-5755/6i9g8un9n?a=view

this is a howto from sun.com. setting up BIND is kinda stright forward w/ a slight bend to the left.

I highly suggest you goto your local book store and check out that book. I think you will walk away with a stronger grasp on how to implament it, configure it, and deploy it.

I havent played w/ DNS servers in years but i am sure i can dust off my notes if need be.
