How to setup name server? "Very Carefully"

Personally I avoid running my own nameserver whenever possible. There are services like www.zoneedit.com where you can put dns for 5 domains for free, and more for nominal fees. Compared to the headaches you get with DNS problems, it's cheap.

Here's another place to look.

I agree. The only time i would use a name server is if it's for a local network. Most of the time the registrar will provide the DNS services for you.
