so essentially,

the process would have each system in the sub net, report it's
address/name to the external dyndns service, where it would be
managed/returned as a subname, which would then populate the
local/internal resolv.conf (or whatever is required) to allow the
local services/users of the subnet the ability to access the boxes by
the "subnames"...

could work..
