On Debian I installed bind9 bind9utils and bind9-doc

Edited configuration, restarted services.

Nothing was changed or enabled besides what is mentioned below.

Sorry for not being able to help more, have not used redhat or related, 
for more years than I like to remember ;-)
I remember using version 6 "some time" ago.....
