> How do you set up a name server under BSD, I though there was a bind daemon but cant find one 

What do you want exactly ? If you only want to use name-services, you
need to setup /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/host.conf with correct values.
The name resolution happens in the C-library without any daemon on
the local machine.
If you really want to setup a name-server you need to do many things.
Start for that is to read the manual page of "named" and read that and
also look at the SEE ALSO hints.
