I think so. Sure it's not in woody? I'd thought we had it from the
debian.org mirrors, with apt-get install dhcpv3 or so.
It's worth it.

You need a single little statement in your

subnet {
       [...]
}

area like this

  ddns-hostname = 
concat("klient-",binary-to-ascii(10,8,"-",substring(leased-address,2,2)));

which will take the last two octets of the client's dynamically
assigned IP-address and forms a hostname like "klient-0-205" (for your
setup, one of the dyn addresses IIRC).
Could be that 0 is dropped out, so "klient--205" would be built (but I
leave reading the documentation, man dhcp-options, to you) - and you
see how to do it, don't you?
