Maybe I've not provided enough information. The dhcp server is assigning a dynamic ip to the eth1 interface. The dns server needs to know eth1's IP alright but the conf files expect a static ip, as you stated.
I think the solution is to make eth1 a static ip, and lend out a dynamic ip to the router downstream, and then the dns server will be happy. Or as another person suggests, perhaps run dnsmasq, but Ubuntu has a semi-automatic network manager that likes to do things itself, as I am finding out.
