ISC bind and ISC dhcpd work well together to do ddns updates. As a management tool, I recommend Webmin http://www.webmin.com which will do a lot more than DNS/DHCP for you.
I think he was looking more for a distributed LAN/management solution.
In reality, I do have to say that ISC's piecemeal DHCP and DNS servers were really designed for the Internet, and not a management LAN. Which is why I think there really needs to be an integrated, private LAN-only combinational layer 2 + layer 3 name services daemon.
So far, the only ones I've seen are either ADS-integrated, proprietary or scripts/hacks around ISC DHCP+DNS. The few proprietary ones I've seen look pretty good though, but I've never deployed them.
