DDNS and DHCP for microsoft workgroup environment

Greetings,

I am trying to setup a Solaris-based DHCP server and/with
Solaris-based DNS with dynamic updates to support Windows 98/NT/XP systems.

In my setup (Solaris 9-dhcpmgr, ISC Bind 9.2.1)
The same system is the DNS server and DHCP server.
 I have "allow-update" with the the IP of the system in it.
DHCP does issue IPs, but I can not see them in DNS when I do
an nslookup query.
I have the "Update DNS host information upon client request"
checked on DHCP manager .... but no apparent DNS
updates (i.e. I am checking from a SUN with "nslookup -
dynamicDns-ip-address")

One more bit of info (in case this is the problem),
I am only testing right now with a Window98 client setup for DHCP boot

Any ideas, suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Harold White
