The link to 'DNS Tutorial', a work called 'DNS for Rocket Scientists',
is pretty good.  The 'DNS Template' one links to Team Cymru's template
for an improved-security BIND9 named.conf file.

I didn't go into this because it's a lengthy-yet-basic topic and I
really don't have enough time to spend on that.  Especially in
one-to-one private mail.

Strong suggestion:  It's past time for you to do some basic study of DNS
and of BIND administration, because frankly you've been doing a terrible
job and it's obvious you never bothered doing basic reading before
jumping in and screwing things up.
