Are you trying to get a domain name hosted on your computer? If this is what you're after, it's really easy. My server's details about this are located at http://calvarybucyrus.org/server/Server.htm. It costs about $35/year.

Or are you actually going into full-scale web hosting production? If not, you probably don't need your own DNS server.
You can read more about internet infrastructure and DNS servers at http://computer.howstuffworks.com/dns.htm/printable.

Then you'll want to check out how I do it (http://calvarybucyrus.org/server/Server.htm). I registered the domain name through http://no-ip.com/. When I got the domain name, I also got the NO-IP plus service (http://www.no-ip.com/services/managed_dns/plus_dynamic_dns.html). This enables you to host your own domain from your IP address, even if it is dynamic.
If your address does change, they have an update client that you can download.

do you me like starting your own dns provider like no-ip.com. The only free dns server for windows that exists is bind.

Better to be thought a fool and keep your mouth shut than open it and prove it. 2 seconds on Google will show you how stupid your statement is.
