	What is possible - updating using scripts, or running BIND on
the same machine as a web server (presumably Apache)?
	While I'm sure someone has written them, I don't know of any
scripts that will "update" (whatever that means) BIND configuration
files that are included either as part of the base system or as
ports.
	However, running BIND and Apache is certainly possible - the
machine I'm typing this on does exactly that.
