You'll need to configure /etc/named.conf.  On my system, I just did
this:

        include "/var/named/named.conf";

Then I set up /var/named as a separate ZFS file system, so that it's
not disturbed by system upgrades or even reinstalls.  For that file, I
just started with one of the commonly-available templates and filled
it out.

include "/var/named/named.conf.options";
zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/var/named/db.root";
};
zone "localhost" {
        type master;
        file "/var/named/db.local";
};
[...]
zone "workingcode.com" { type master; file "/var/named/db.workingcode"; };
zone "9.d.1.0.6.0.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int" { type master; file 
"/var/named/db.ip6"; };
zone "9.d.1.0.6.0.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa" { type master; file 
"/var/named/db.ip6"; };

... and those point to my zone files.  Besides the usual books about
BIND configuration, a pretty good start is to type "named sample
configuration" into google.
