Install bind9 and configured the server to run in a chroot as per here.

On your primary names server, edit /var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf.local

server <123.134.145.5> { provide-ixfr yes; };      #your first backup name server's IP
server <123.134.145.6> { provide-ixfr yes; };      #your nth backup names server's IP

zone "145.134.123.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "pz/123.134.145"; };     #Your IP range for reverse lookups
zone "domain.tld" in { type master; file "pz/domain.tld"; };        # zone file for a domain

Create a pz directory in whatever directory is specified in /var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf.options:

directory "/var/cache/bind";

Remember, bind is chrooted into /var/lib/named/, so:

mkdir /var/lib/named/var/cache/bind/pz

Then create your domain and reverse lookup files:

touch var/lib/named/var/cache/bind/pz/domain.tld
touch var/lib/named/var/cache/bind/pz/123.134.145.in.addr.arpa

Set up your reverse lookups file for the IP range you gave by editing the arpa file:

$TTL 3600
@               IN      SOA     ns0.domain.tld.    hostmaster.domain.tld. (
                        2006091001 ; serial
                        4h ; refresh
                        1h ; retry
                        1w ; expire
                        1h ; default_ttl
                        )

                IN      NS      ns0.domain.tld.
                IN      NS      ns1.domain.tld.
                IN      NS      ns2.domain.tld.

4      IN      PTR     ns0.domain.tld.  
5      IN      PTR     ns1.domain.tld.
6      IN      PTR     ns2.domain.tld.
10     IN      PTR     mail.domain.tld
11     IN      PTR     mail2.domain.tld
65     IN      PTR     www.domain.tld.

Now set up your domain's file:

$TTL 3600
  @               IN      SOA     ns0.domain.tld.    hostmaster.domain.tld. (
                        2006122101 ; serial
                        4h ; refresh
                        1h ; retry
                        1w ; expire
                        1h ; default_ttl
                        )

                IN      TXT     "MyTextHere"
                IN      TXT     "v=spf1 ip4:123.134.145.10 -all"
                IN      NS      ns0.domain.tld.
                IN      NS      ns1.domain.tld.
                IN      NS      ns2.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      10      mail.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      20      mail2.domain.tld.
                IN      A       123.134.145.65

                IN      MX      10      mail.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      10      mail2.domain.tld.

                IN      MX      10      mail.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      10      mail2.domain.tld.
www             IN      A       123.134.145.65
                IN      MX      10      mail.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      10      mail2.domain.tld.
mail            IN      A       123.134.145.10
                IN      MX      10      mail.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      10      mail2.domain.tld.
mail2           IN      A       123.134.145.11
                IN      MX      10      mail.domain.tld.
                IN      MX      10      mail2.domain.tld.

Restart the name services:

/etc/init.d/bind9 restart

On your backup name server(s), edit /var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf.local
