Don't get me wrong, I'm not beating you up.
But If you have to ask such a question, then you may want to seek outside help.
Or you may want to check with your ISP, they may offer DNS hosting service.
Typically, most organizations have theirown DNS servers that they can control locally. Some companies opt to have their ISP or third party host their DNS.
If I was you, I would choose the latter until you become proficient in how DNS works and how it needs to be set up.
DNS and Bind from O'reilly may be a good place to start learning about DNS.

I a pretty good understanding of how it works. I would definitly do research before setting one up. The main reason that I was asking was because a tech from our solutions provider was giving us wrong info. Well, I thought it was wrong so I came here to double check. He said that we would have to become an accredited registrar to do it, and I felt that that was wrong. So I asked here because I don't know that much about DNS.
Thanks

You need a couple of things.
1. 2 static IP's that can be dedicated to DNS
2. 2 DNS servers (1 primary, 1 slave I reccomend)
3. Change your DNS servers in your domain record with whomever you have your domain registered with (ie netwk solutions, register.com, etc) to your dns servers. You must supply 2 dns servers.
From then on you will be responsible for your own DNS.
