Try to use djbdns, it is more secure than bind and it is easy to setup.
Just download the tarball from
http://cr.yp.to read the procedure, then compile it to your linux box and
see the difference.
Google internet search engine is using this dns program.
For your information only. God bless.
Have a nice day!
