Setting up a name server using BIND is quite straightforward, so I’ll show you how to do so on any computer you might have available for experimentation. This little lab project will show you how to install and configure BIND on your computer as a caching name server, test it, then set it up as a primary name server with a zone file that you can use as a name resolver for your network or just for testing.
