Please help with DNS Hosting

    Can someone please help me understand how DNS hosing works. I have always gone the easy route of hostmonster or hostgator or something along those lines but a recent domain I registered requires me to provide it with DNS information. So I need to know where to start and how it all works. Can anyone recommend a good DNS host that will give me a primary and secondary server name to plug in to the domain and I can be ready to go. I would prefer the host of the DNS to have an easy to use interface so I can get in the FTP upload my site and be done.

    Thanks

    There are numerous free dns hosting sites out there, cloudns.net for example.
