Finally the desired DHCP and dynamic DNS services are working properly. The setup is straightforward: DHCP pushes clients' hostnames over to a private dynamically updated domain server. Because this is for internal use only, basically to satisfy Win 2K/XP machines, I decided to run BIND on the fileserver behind the firewall, rather than include this in our actual DNS. Now I'm off to play around with running a samba fileserver (3.0.7) running LDAP, which will obviate the need for the bind workaround.
