So let the client specify the DDNS domain name, in the DHCP transaction. Or 
just hard-code a DDNS domain name into each subnet, possibly varying by subnet. 
Or do both -- use the client-supplied value if one is supplied, or else use the 
default.

Bear in mind, I'm not saying client updates are necessarily bad, only that you 
could have done it the other way.
