Hi Mike!
If you run BIND 9, you can do it on the same box using views. See the
BIND 9 ARM (in the distibution, or online at http://www.nominum.com/)
for the details. If you really decide to allow student workstations
to issue dynamic updates, please do yourself a favor and sandbox them
to a zone or zones that you don't really care about.
I'm curious as to why you'd really want to move in this direction
though, rather than letting NetReg/DHCP do the dynamic updates. But
perhaps I misunderstanding something...
