it means that some other application ( probably a nameserver) already 
is using that socket.  You will have to kill all nameservers before
starting up bind. 

Also that bind cannot add "command channel 127.0.0.1#953" is a problem,
it might go away if you kill all remnants, otherwize you have 
a routing issue with your loopback interface.
