The "bible" for DNS and BIND is called (surprise) _DNS_and_BIND_,
published by O'Reilly and currently in Fourth Edition.

If you want some online materials, there are some at
http://www.dns.net/dnsrd, but if you're going to be setting up and
maintaining DNS for the first time, IMO there is no substitute for a
comprehensive reference.
