I cannot understand how this could possibly work. Which DNS server(s) will
the updates be sent to? or will it just add an entry in /etc/hosts ?

Will the ifup script read your resolv.conf and send the updates ?
Have you actually tested this ?
The following is what i'm using for a LAN of >300 m/c's and it works fine.
ISC dhcpd >v3.0 supports Dynamic DNS Updates. (ISC DHCP is the default DHCP
server that comes with most Linux distributions) Download and configure it
For eg. -
The following should go into dhcpd.conf
[in the global section -]
ddns-update-style interim;
ddns-domainname "lab.example.com";
[defining zones and their host DNS servers for forward and reverse lookups ]
zone lab.example.com. {
primary 192.168.1.1;
}
zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. {
primary 192.168.1.1;
}
