Need more info, or clarifications. There's this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_DNS, which is pretty well established.

What I read you have;
* DNS Servier
* DHCP Server functioning as a NAT gateway
* Clients hanging off the NAT gateway.

Depending on the DNS server, if it happens to be AD, it has dynamic DNS
built in. If not worst case: a script that tails your DHCP log, and then
updates the DNS provider probably gets you what you want. Bind10 / powerdns
all have APIs you can use.
