The BOG (BIND Operations Guide, I think) can be found in the
BIND distribution.  Look in the doc/bog directory.  Man pages
can be found in the man directory.

While these are not anywhere near as verbose as the O'Reilly book,
I have found them to be good references, especially for newer
features not covered elsewhere.
