Simple notes to help set up name servers. (which work, although may be slightly broken)

a) in /etc/bind/named.conf

zone "akbkhome.com" {
        type master;
        file "named.akbkhome.com";
};

b) (based on the directory line in /etc/bind/named.conf) edit the corresponding file named.akbkhome.com

;main expiry stuff
@       IN      SOA     akbkhome.com. root.akbkhome.com. (
                        2005030305  ; serial, todays date + todays serial #
                        8H              ; refresh, seconds
                        2H              ; retry, seconds
                        1W              ; expire, seconds
                        1D )            ; minimum, seconds

;your name servers (dont forget the ending dot!)
                 NS ns1.akbkhome.com.
                 NS ns2.akbkhome.com.

; this is a SPF setting (dont forget the ending dot!)
akbkhome.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 a ip4:192.168.0.0/24 -all"
