I have a static IP debian Linux host successfully participating on a Windows 2003 forest and joined to their Win2003 domain.

I'd like to have my Samba client update their Windows DNS during Samba startup/shutdown like a typical Windows pc would do... Is this possible and what is the magic tweak?
If it has a static address, why not create static DNS entries? I think normally DNS updates are done by the DHCP software so unless you are assigning your static addresses via DHCP I don't think it will work.
