I want to confirm what Carsten said here;

I just performed an upgrade from Snow Leopard, 10.6.8 one day before Yesterday. The upgrade itself went fine except for BIND and Apache.

After upgrading to OS X Mavericks, 10.9, the upgrade removed all the files mentioned bellow plus all the Websites on Apache configuration as well. OS X Mavericks no longer have the web sharing. So it is highly advisable to backup your BIND and Apache configuration files before upgrade. Fortunately I had a copy of all these files in a backup mirror server. So, for me was just a matter of connecting and copying all these files back to OS X Mavericks and set the nrdc key again.

Here is the files to backup;

Full path to the named.conf file       /etc/named.conf  
Full path to the named executable      /usr/sbin/named  
Full path to whois command             whois    
Full path to ndc command               ndc      
Full path to rndc command              rndc     
Full path to rndc-confgen command      rndc-confgen
Full path to the rndc.conf file        /etc/rndc.conf   
Full path to named-checkzone command   named-checkzone  
Full path to named-checkconf command   named-checkconf  
Full path to dnssec-keygen command     dnssec-keygen    
Full path to dnssec-signzone command   dnssec-signzone  

In addition do not forget to back-up the PID file location in your system whatever the PID file it is located;

Default PID file location  ———? Your location

Hi BIND users on MacOS,

it looks like the upgrade to MacOS X 10.9 "Mavericks" removes
BIND. Early reports also indicate that the upgrade process also removes
the BIND configuration file "/etc/named.conf" and all zonefiles in
"/var/named". It happend on my machine, and there are reports coming in
from other users, but I need to confirm this on a lab environment.

The Men & Mice BIND MacOS X installers at currently fail on MacOS X
10.9, because /var/named is not there. I'm working on updating the Men &
Mice packages to work on MacOS X 10.9.

Best regards
