My i suggest giving MyDNS a look (http://mydns.bboy.net/)

<snip>
MyDNS is a free DNS server for UNIX implemented from scratch and designed to
serve records directly from an SQL database (currently either MySQL or
PostgreSQL).

Easy to setup, easy to use.
I've been using it a while, seems to work well. (doesn't however include a
resolver/cache, however these should be seperate from your name servers with
the host files anyway - bind/tinydns could be run on a seperate machine for
a resolver without any problems).

/usr/ports/dns/mydns/

Hope this helps,

Simon
