DHCP server that supports Dynamic Updates

[Mike Roest]

The ISC dhcpd supports dynamic updates.  I'm using 3.0p1.  The dynamic
updates work great, the reason you didn't see any reference to nsupdate
is because the dhcp server sends the updates directly to the DNS.  It
doesn't use a intermediate utility.

Subject: DHCP server that supports Dynamic Updates



I just installed Red Hat 7.3 and looked through the man pages for
Dynamic DNS support.  I found very little.

I can get DNS working (including master, slave, zone transfers) and I
can get DHCP working complete with DNS servers, routers, and WINS
servers.  I've managed both on Red Hat systems for about 5 years now.

But I would like to implement Dynamic DNS.

Anyone know of a Linux DHCP server that supports "Dynamic DNS
updates?"  I didn't see any reference to nsupdate in the man pages for
dhcpd, dhcpd.conf or dhcpd.leases.
