I had problems (mainly slowness) with the Bind 9 port. Just FYI.

Just read and write text files. The server has a master configuration file, plus one file per zone. Once changes are made, use cfexecute to run a command-line program that controls the DNS server. You can reload a single zone, reload all zones, check the server's status, etc. Win32 binaries of versions 8.3.0 and 9.2.0 can be found at ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind/contrib/ for anyone interested.
