Dynamic DNS from Linux DHCP

[none]

I am using W2000 DNS and DHCP.

I want to configure ISC DHCP Server V3.0.1 on RHEL3 Linux
as an emergency backup DHCP. The leases are being
issued but no DNS dynamic registration. Can Windows DNS dynamic
updates be made to work from Linux DHCP? So far no luck.

I have only tried Linux DHCP clients - maybe I will try a Windows
client to see if the Linux DHCP registers a Windows client
in the Windows DNS. Anyone done this?

I added zone statements to the dhcp.conf; but no key
statements. Still no registration. Nothing in the w2k Event Logs.
What authentication does DNS use to allow DDNS updates?

Short answer is no.
ISC DHCP can only register in a ISC BIND DNS server.
MS DHCP can only register in an MS DNS server.
