If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/bind9
%  sudo port install bind9  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching bind9
--->  Verifying checksum for bind9
--->  Extracting bind9
--->  Configuring bind9
--->  Building bind9 with target all

--->  Staging bind9 into destroot

--->  Installing bind9

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using bind9 with these commands:

%  man bind9
%  apropos bind9
%  which bind9
%  locate bind9
