I haven't ever needed to install or configure DNS on red hat before but I believe you can install the bind dns server from the red hat repositories. You would do this on RH v.4 with the up2date tool. up2date -i bind or whatever it is. The Red Hat package will have a init script to start/stop the service. If for some reason you need/really want to use your own build of bind and it doesn't include a init script, you can just copy one of the existing init scripts for another service and change the appropriate info to make it applicable for DNS. If your new to starting and stopping services on RH you'll want to read the ma pages for chkconfig and service. Good luck.
