If you only need caching, then try using something simpler, and more secure, than bind.
Note that Centos4 runs bind under a non-root uid and in a chroot jail, so it should be as secure as you can get.
Try dnsmasq (it can run a dhcp-server too, but that is easily disabled) or dns-cache (a djb software utility).
I prefer dnsmasq myself. Simple, but effective.
You can't get much simpler than yum install bind and if needed, add the forwarders to named.conf
