I would go even further and suggest everyone use unbound in preference to any other caching resolver. It is extremely well designed, coded, tested and supported. I'm sure BIND10 will be as well but for now, as is natural, BIND9 has been leap-frogged by the more recently released product.

I would just like to recommend simple DNS plus, not because I've actually used it or anything but rather, because its not bind and has the most little green boxes on the wiki page that details DNS server software features http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_DNS_server_software (and for those that have missed the sarcasm, you really don't need to reply.) -- Steve.
