You would need something like this in your /var/named/<zone> file:

www,yahoo.com                      1D IN A         192.168.0.5
www.google.com                        IN A         192.168.0.5
www.asd.net                           IN A         192.168.0.5

You also need to create a reverse zone file if you want to resolve IP
addresses to hostnames.

5       IN      PTR     www.yahoo.com.
5       IN      PTR     www.google.com.

Do not forget the  trailing dot!

Apart from that, you *must* also edit your /etc/named.conf to have a
section like this:

zone "yahoo.com" IN {
        type master;
        file "<your-zone-file-in-/var/named>";
        allow-update { none; };

create similar entries for google.com and asd.net

If you need reverse lookups, then you also need to have a section like
this:  

zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "<your-reverse-zone-file-in-/var/named>";
        allow-update { none; };



I know its kind of difficult to comprehend this, so I suggest you read
some docs on DNS/BIND. O'Reilly's DNS and Bind is a wonderful book on
the topic.
