Installing bind into a VS should be the same that on a normal system, BUT,
with the difference of ports and ips to listen to.

You can configure named to listen on port 1053 ip 192.168.1.1 with the
following :

options {
        listen-on port 1053 {
           192.168.1.1;
        };
};

(NOTE: Add the ones you need for your own into this directive)

And then you can create a rule for iptables to redirect 192.168.1.1:53 to
192.168.1.1:1053 (same as for the web)

And you should be running your own DNS on a virtual server.

Regards,
