If your not worried about keeping Bind, have a look at MyDNS. I have
been running it for about 2 years and one server has just served its 10
million'th query. It doesnt have all the features that Bind has, but run
under daemontools it has worked flawlessly for us here and it comes with
a php frontend.

There are also scripts to such the existing bind files into mysql.
