It's my first time setting up a DNS server and I bought a book to help..... 
in the line

@       IN      SOA     @ root.localhost (

is the "root.localhost" part where you would you replace that with the name 
of the DNS server?

and then there's a

; servers
atlas   IN      A       192.168.1.255
www     CNAME   atlas

is the "atlas" part the name of the server your hosting? and does the "www" 
"CNAME" and "atlas" part is  the www the extention for the beginning like 
in www.bob.net or talk.whatever.org?
