I haven't used FreeBSD in a while, but it sounds like you're making a mess out of your system.

In FreeBSD (and the other BSDs as well), the binaries in /sbin, /bin, /usr/bin, and /usr/sbin are part of the base system. Randomly overwriting them is a bad idea.

A binary upgrade from one release of the operating system to another will now be a lot trickier. Should you need or want to patch or rebuild from source, the base system named will clobber the port version that you installed in /usr/sbin.

On the other side of things, the package manager won't be able to properly uninstall or upgrade the bind port/package, since files which it installed in /usr/local have been relocated behind its back.

Regards,
Alister

This result:
Code:
bind96 not installed, skipping

I don't know why not installed
Because the bind that's in /usr/sbin is not part of the ports/packages system. It is part of the base system.

(I've assumed that you meant "deinstall" instead of "install" in that make command.)
