Assuming BIND is riunning..

add something like:-
-------------------------
zone "demoserver.com" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.demoserver.com";
};

------------------------
to /etc/bind/named.conf.

The file itself should looks something like this

db.demoserver.com:
--------------------
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA demoserver.com. root.localhost. (
1 ; Serial
604800 ; Refresh
86400 ; Retry
2419200 ; Expire
604800 ) ; Negative Cache TTL
;
@ IN NS localhost.
www.demoserver.com. IN A 192.168.1.1
---------------------------------------------

That's the minimum.

Restart BIND.


Good luck.
