Interim works. But this is not the only option you need.

There has to be a key that allows updates, and "ddns updates on" etc
etc. Here are the relevant sections from a working system.

/etc/named.conf

include "/etc/rndc.key";
zone "whatever.za" in {
file "dyn/whatever.za";
type master;
allow-update { key "rndc-key"; };
};
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {
file "dyn/1.168.192.in-addr.arpa";
type master;
allow-update { key "rndc-key"; };
};

/etc/rndc.key
key "rndc-key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "some random stuff that I won't put up on a public list";
};


/etc/dhcpd.conf

ddns-update-style interim;
ddns-updates on;
include "/etc/rndc.key";
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.254;
default-lease-time 604800;
max-lease-time 2592000;
zone whatever.za. {
primary 127.0.0.1;
key rndc-key;
}
zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. {
primary 127.0.0.1;
key rndc-key;
}
}
