For better security, you should use TSIG-authentication ("keys"-directive). Hints: - ddns-update is quite a new option, so always try the latest version of dhcpd . - Do the DNS- and the DHCP-server run on the same machine? What's the definition of your "lan"-ACL? - On the DNS server, turn on query-logging ("rndc querylog") and watch syslog ("tail -f /var/log/messages &") while trying to update the DNS (see next hint). - Does BIND accept updates you send using the "nsupdate"-command? $ nsupdate > server 158.29.212.26 > zone pmsl.sd > update add krtws024.pmsl.sd 60 A 158.29.212.100 > send > quit Please try this from both the DNS- and the DHCP-server. - as always, tcpdump is your friend...
