read the /usr/ports/dns/bind9 Makefile and use the 'PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND9'
option to make.

make PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND9=yes install clean

In rc.conf
----------
named_enable="YES"
named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named"
named_flags="-c /usr/local/etc/namedb/named.conf -u bind"



and you can also put NO_BIND= true in /etc/make.conf so that base BIND
isn't build when you make world.

Definetly consider chrooting or jailing BIND
