The standard answer seems to be "install dnsmasq". Your best option might be looking into incron and/or monit. Then you can monitor for (immediate/realtime) changes to /var/db/dhcpd.leases and act accordingly against unbound. It will involve scripting and parsing, and you'll be at the mercy of non-base tools, but it should be doable. Let us know if you cook something up. I'm going to give it a shot myself – one day. Kind regards
