One obvious thing that is missing is one of the following declarations 
from the top of the file:

#option domain-name "your.net|org|com";
#option domain-name-servers machine.your.net|org|com;
ddns-update-style interim;

IIRC from the manuals the last is preferred.  Try adding it in and seeing 
what happens.  Also you're missing any "max-lease-time" and 
"default-lease-time" within the host group.
