Question Dynamic DNS

I have a need to regularly add all macs in our domain to dns.
Ideally it would work like Wintel machines. Transparently and automatically.

What are the tools, scripts, roadblocks to doing so?

I'm not talking about DynDNS type of service here. This is the internal dns for where I work.

DEFAULTDOMAIN(5)					     Linux Programmer's Manual						  DEFAULTDOMAIN(5)

NAME
defaultdomain - file which contains the NIS/YP domain name DESCRIPTION
/etc/defaultdomain is used by the boot scripts to set the NIS/YP domain name for a system as returned by the getdomainname(2) function. The file contains one line with the name of the domain. Unlike DNS hostnames and domain names, the NIS domain name is case-sensitive! The NIS domain name must not be the same as the DNS domain name, but for some services like NIS+ it should be the same. Even if the domain name is often called NIS/YP domain name, it is also used from other protocols, not only NIS/YP. FILES
/etc/defaultdomain /etc/init.d/boot.localnet SEE ALSO
domainname(1), init.d(7), init(8), nisdomainname(1), ypdomainname(1), ypbind(8), ypserv(8), ypwhich(1) COPYRIGHT
