In addition to the UNIX SA book by Nemeth, Seebass, et al. recommended
by Doug White, you'll want a copy of TCP/IP Network Administration from
O'Reilly and Associates. It has enough about DNS to get you up and
running, but you've already ordered DNS and Bind.
Any of the O'Reilly "blue" series will be helpful, but buy them as you
need them. Others in the series include Sendmail (bat book) and
NFS/NIS. I'm a big fan of the O'Reilly series.
