Migrating BIND to new hardware

[Jim McAtee]

Depends on which version you're coming from.  I'd upgrade BIND on the old 
hardware first, then make any necessary changes to config or zone files. 
After you're sure everything is operating properly it's just a matter of 
moving those files to the new server.
