First, check out www.zoneedit.com or soa.granitecanyon.com.  Both provide free primary and secondary DNS service (though with zoneedit, there's a limit of 5 domains for free; after that, you have to pay).  If you really want to run your own, you'll still need a secondary DNS server, but check out http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html and http://www.hill.com/library/staffpubs/dns.html.
