Here's how I've done it, using the nsupdate-command that came with BIND 
9.2.2:

vimes# host many.aminor.no
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.2
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.3
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.4
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.1
vimes# /usr/local/bin/nsupdate -k Kaminor.no.+123+45678.key

vimes# host many.aminor.no
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.2
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.4
many.aminor.no has address 127.0.0.1
vimes#

It seems to be working fine here.
