What are you trying to accomplish by doing this? It seems to me that dyndns's service is well worth the cost, given the redundancy and reliability that they provide. (note, I don't have a business relationship with dnydns other than being a customer). I don't have (and can't get) a static IP address though, so I'm limited in my options, and dyndns fits the bill nicely.
The Linux Cookbook by Carla Schroder has several 'recipes' for configuring dns using djbdns as well as bind. I highly recommend this book. Sorry I can't be of any more help than that. I have experience with bind but not much djbdns.
