 The trick you're looking for is the "allow-update" option for your
local zone in the /etc/named.conf file.  It's disabled by default.

 You create a zone for your local network, and include

        allow-update { 192.168.0.0/16; };

 I havn't tried to do this.  It's not really necessary, and in fact
is a bit of a security and administration nightmare.

 I'd recommend a good read through "man named.conf" and looking at the
examples that come with the bind and caching-nameserver packages.
