separate static and ddns host files

[Denis Barbet]

Bonjour,

I have read the bind archives to find solutions to  mix static and dynamic 
range ip .

I have found several answers  (especially from Bob Vance , thanks to him) , 
where the way is to use the zone  "dynamic.in-addr.arpa".

But i am not sure to understand exactly well this way, and second part  i 
am not exactly sure to make the right modifications in the right files...

So anybody could answer to me about the followings    ? :

-  HOw finally can i have  four differents host files by this way  (two 
"host  static" and two "host dynamic") ?

- Should i add a reverse zone in the 
named.conf  with  "dynamic.in-addr.arpa"  or not ?

- Should i add a $include statement in the normal host file to 
precise  dynamic updating. And where should i place this include  statmeent 
in the host file ?
- What  should be the contents of this include file ?

-  In which file  should i write the $generate statement for dynamic range :
$generate 230-240 $ CNAME $.113.221.195.dynamic.in-addr.arpa            ?
(if the dynamic ip range is 230-240)

In fact i don't want to create new zone for dynamic ip ranges, but only new 
hosts files. Is it really possible without disturbing the other services 
(parent named, sendmail, etc...) who are using dns.

My apologizes for these trivial questions,  but after reading the bind 
archives, i don't have th clear ideas...

Many thanks for your answer.

Denis
