I recommend the O'Reilly book "DNS and BIND" , ISBN # 0-596-10057-4 .

i dont recommend reading books since they're mostly a waste of time to me.

utilize google. google will provide you with actual real life situations that can greatly resemble that of your work environment and u dont have to go slapping around book pages to find something.
