BIND 9.3.1 compiled for RHEL-2.1 is at:
   http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/bind/RHEL-2.1
This includes the 'bind-chroot' RPM which runs bind in a chroot jail,
and should be compatible with RHL-9.0, which is DEFUNCT and unsupported.
You may want to rebuild the src.rpm on RHL-9.0 with: 
   # rpmbuild --rebuild bind-9.3.1-1_EL2.src.rpm
and then install the resulting RPMs in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/$ARCH .

You should really consider upgrading to a modern, supported OS like FC-4
   http://fedora.redhat.com/download/
where bind-9.3.1 also has a bind-chroot package.

If you've any problems, let me know off-list.
