LinuxQuestions.org - BIND 9/DHCPD DDNS Not Functioning

I have recently setup a Suse 9.2 server to do networking services. I had thought that I had set it up correctly, but apparently not. I have told it to do dynamicDNS updates - however, this just doesn't happen. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I have followed the various instructions on the iternet and various places, and my configuration looks the same as theirs, but it just isn't working - DDNS updates just don't happen. Below are both of my config ffiles, /etc/named.conf and /etc/dhcpd.conf
