use this command to install a DNS server in debian. i use this command to install BIND9 in the shell prompt with apt-get:
command:
apt-get install bind9
After you send this command you get a prompt to install BIND, type Y for yes.

Adding group `bind' (104)...
Done.
Adding system user `bind'...
Adding new user `bind' (101) with group `bind'.
Not creating home directory.
Starting domain name service: named.
now, you need to stop named to install chroot for security purposes. so execute this command to stop nind9
command:
/etc/init.d/bind9 stop
edit the bind9 file:
nano /etc/default/bind9
bind9 will look something like this:
OPTIONS="-u bind"
now add
-t /var/lib/named to make it look like this:
OPTIONS="-u bind -t /var/lib/named"
save the the file with the new changes.
now you need to create the files needed for chroot to work, so sent these commands:
commands to make directories:
mkdir -p /var/lib/named/etc
mkdir /var/lib/named/dev
mkdir -p /var/lib/named/var/cache/bind
mkdir -p /var/lib/named/var/run/bind/run
move config directory from /etc to /var/lib/named/etc
mv /etc/bind /var/lib/named/etc
Create a symlink to the new config directory from the old location (to avoid problems when bind is upgraded in the future):
ln -s /var/lib/named/etc/bind /etc/bind
Make null and random devices, and fix permissions of the directories:
mknod /var/lib/named/dev/null c 1 3
mknod /var/lib/named/dev/random c 1 8
chmod 666 /var/lib/named/dev/null /var/lib/named/dev/random
chown -R bind:bind /var/lib/named/var/*
chown -R bind:bind /var/lib/named/etc/bind
edit /etc/init.d/sysklogd of sysklogd to get important messages logged to the system logs. Modify the line: SYSLOGD="" to SYSLOGD="-a /var/lib/named/dev/log"
edit /etc/init.d/sysklogd
nano /etc/init.d/sysklogd
the file may first look like this:
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/sysklogd: start the system log daemon.
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
pidfile=/var/run/syslogd.pid

now you can restart the logging daemon:
/etc/init.d/sysklogd restart
Now that we've made the necessary changes, you can start bind
/etc/init.d/bind9 start
