Well as you already have experience with BIND9 (and presumably, a working config) then it would be logical to stick with that. I would suggest just using the one package for both authoritative and recursive queries rather than running two packages which would mean binding them to different IPs so they don't fight over port 53 on the same IP.

I haven't been following OSX Server, so they are dropping DNS now ? It's always seemed like the unwanted stepchild, not really promoted or developed, and with no proper server hardware to run it on (I used to manage two of the original XServes with 10.3 in the past).
Is BIND in OSX Ports or Fink ?
