I agree with Brian on best DNS practice to use bind but if for
whatever reason a router is being used as DNS server (perhaps for
other routers...)

documentation is in doc CD under IP addressing

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios-xml/ios/ipaddr_dns/configuration/12-4t/dns-12-4t-book.html

pretty straight forward stuff. In practice, I usually 'no ip
domain-lookup' on devices because it becomes an annoyance. For router
to be DNS client this needs to be activated. specify a server with the
ip name-server x.x.x.x command. Ensure the the router acting as server
has host entry that is trying to be resolved. Not much more to it.
