I am assuming that you are running NAT with DHCP.  You can just point /etc/resolv.conf to your local DNS server.  Also modify DHCP daemon to supply your internal DNS server.  You may also want to setup DNS forwarders in BIND.

You will need to specify a hostname for each dynamic IP.  For example, if your DHCP daemon is supplying IP addresses in 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.150 range, open up your private LAN zone and assign a hostname for each of the IP address.

If you are already running a NAT, just bind BIND to your private IP address.  NAT is already kind of a firewall.
