Hi Alex,

You might try adding the option "--restart-netchange" to the daemondo  
invocation in /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.bind9.plist:

		<string>--restart-netchange</string>

This should cause daemondo to restart bind if the ip address changes,  
which is probably occurring after bind gets running.
