Dynamic DNS in dhcpd is in the dhcpd 3 code only, not dhcpd 2. See
http://www.isc.org/dhcpd.html
It would be fun to play with this if you have the time, but it is
definitely not yet production code!

Grin... surely that one is a trivial one line Perl script:
perl -e 'for ($i=100; $i <=200 ; $i++) { print
"198.168.100.$i\tws$i.my.domain\tws$i\n"; } ;' >>/etc/hosts
Not menu driven or friendly, but definitely quick :-) :-)
