I would have to strongly disagree with you on the issue of DNS not having
changed much in the past decade. There have been quite a few changes,
although the underlying concepts are still quite visible.

THE Book on DNS and BIND is, well... 

DNS & BIND
by Paul Albitz, Cricket Liu, Mike Loukides (Editor)
Paperback - 482 pages 3rd edition (September 1998)
O'Reilly & Associates; ISBN: 1565925122

O'Reilly & Associates is located at http://www.ora.com/

I highly recommend many of their books. Drop in and see what they have to
offer. 

Our library will be carrying more O'Reilly books in the near future. My
current personal collection occupies a shelf above my desk and comes in
quite handy.
