Is Dynamic DNS possible with Apache DS?

Hi

I see that Apache DS works as a DNS server
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.0/dns-protocol-provider.html.

Can this be extended to serve dynamic resolution of names for example call
back or interceptor is called for each naming lookup. I am looking for
something similar what pdns has
http://doc.powerdns.com/pipebackend-dynamic-resolution.html , but in Java.

Any thoughts? Does Apache DS or any other Java Server does this?

thanks
Satish

ApacheDS could be extended to support DDNS, but this is not a
currently supported feature.
