Configure BIND
I know how to manage DNS once it's installed. I can edit named.conf and create zone files. I can sign the zones, use TSIG, etc.

How do I take the BIND 9.9 tar ball from All Downloads | Internet Systems Consortium and install it and get it to work?

Maybe I am not getting it.

Can someone help me with the steps needed to untar that file and get a DNS server working? Once I can get named to run, I can edit the configuration file and create zone files. I am wanting to do some playing with DNSSEC and other things.

Thanks for any help!

dnssec-checkds

DNSSEC-CHECKDS(8)						       BIND9							 DNSSEC-CHECKDS(8)

NAME

       dnssec-checkds - A DNSSEC delegation consistency checking tool.

SYNOPSIS

       dnssec-checkds [-l domain] [-f file] [-d dig path] [-D dsfromkey path] {zone}

       dnssec-dsfromkey [-l domain] [-f file] [-d dig path] [-D dsfromkey path] {zone}

DESCRIPTION

       dnssec-checkds verifies the correctness of Delegation Signer (DS) or DNSSEC Lookaside Validation (DLV) resource records for keys in a
       specified zone.

OPTIONS

       -f file
	   If a file is specified, then the zone is read from that file to find the DNSKEY records. If not, then the DNSKEY records for the zone
	   are looked up in the DNS.

       -l domain
	   Check for a DLV record in the specified lookaside domain, instead of checking for a DS record in the zone's parent. For example, to
	   check for DLV records for "example.com" in ISC's DLV zone, use: dnssec-checkds -l dlv.isc.org example.com

       -d dig path
	   Specifies a path to a dig binary. Used for testing.

       -D dsfromkey path
	   Specifies a path to a dnssec-dsfromkey binary. Used for testing.

SEE ALSO

       dnssec-dsfromkey(8), dnssec-keygen(8), dnssec-signzone(8),
