PowerDNS is probably worth a look too, the DNS server itself can query a db, and there are various (usually web based) admin frontends e.g. ZoneAdmin, WebDNS, PowerAdmin, TUPA, PowerDNSAdmin If you go down this route, use an up to date powerdns port (the -current port should work ok on 4.5), it used to be broken. Having something which modifies zone files directly (rather than push-pull via a database) is either going to mean avoiding chroot for the web interface, or adding extra steps to sync the zone files across.
