PowerDNS is probably worth a look too, the DNS server itself can
query a db, and there are various (usually web based) admin frontends
e.g. ZoneAdmin, WebDNS, PowerAdmin, TUPA, PowerDNSAdmin

If you go down this route, use an up to date powerdns port (the
-current port should work ok on 4.5), it used to be broken.

Having something which modifies zone files directly (rather than
push-pull via a database) is either going to mean avoiding chroot
for the web interface, or adding extra steps to sync the zone
files across.
