Take a look at: http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html Easy to configure, if
there's an error in the config file it won't die (it just tells you
and keeps the previous info), and there's no need to go back to named
when you get the public interface up. It's probably in ports/packages
but as easy as it is to set up you're probably better off from sources.
