No, it isn't. At least it isn't trivial for those of us that only occasionally need to modify their DNS server(s). I had a few gripes about system-config-bind, but on the whole it did make it easy for me to manage our DNS servers without having to study the docs each time I needed to make a change.
Now I suppose my only choice is to install webmin, or compile system-config-bind from source.
I cannot understand the reasoning behind dropping system-config-bind from CentOS/RHEL 6. Then leaving it in Fedora. Since when is less tools better? Especially since there doesn't seem to be a reasonable replacement for this useful tool.
