Setting up BIND on SunOS

Hi Group,
I need to set up DNS server on SunOS 5.10.
The external DNS server will be placed over the Internet where as the
internal DNS will serve the companies internal network.
I guess the internal DNS server should do most of the caching where as
the external DNS server will server as the primary or Master DNS
server.

Can any of the group memebers post any reference materials in set up
BIND on SunOS ?
what are the security constraints to be followed in setting up a DNS server ?

Any pointers in this direction is much appreciated.

Thanks
Regards
