bind problem

Hi all and sorry for my bad english...

Ive installed bind 9 with dhcp and all seems works fine.
Dhcp release ip address and write records in a dns zone files.

Now, ive disabled dhcp and i use static ip address on my client.

This is part of my named.conf:

zone "domain.com" {
type master;
file "domain.com.zone";
allow-update { any; };
allow-transfer { none; };
allow-query { any; };
};

Now ive deleted
allow-update { rndckey; }; (used it with dhcp)
and added
allow-update { any; }; (allow all clients update zone files)

But the clients doesnt update the zone files.
Why?

Ive tried to create an acl too:

acl mynet {
10.100.0.0/24; 127.0.0.1;
};

and allow-update { mynet; };

but clients doesnt update dns zone.
Can i use static ip address and automatically zone file updating?

anyone can help me?
Thanks.

Because its not your NIC that does the DNS updating. Your NIC knows
nothing of layer 3 & 4 network protocols. Its the DHCP server software
that was automatically updating bind. Windows 2k/XP have the feature to
dynamically update DNS, but this is not something that is specific to
the IP stack. You'll want to investigate some Dynamic DNS software for
Bind if this is your intention. But then again....if you've got a
static IP, why in the world would you want dynamic DNS? why not just
put in a static A record into the DNS server zone files?

Ive added allow-update { clientsiprange/subnetbit; }; in my named.conf
and now bind accept dynamic update by clients with statics ip address.
