DDNS enteries not being deleted when DHCP lease expires.

Hi, I've been trying to find an answer to this problem for a while, and feel like I'm going in circles. Hopefully someone here can set me straight.

We have isc-dhcpd version 4.2.2 and BIND version 9.8.4 running on a Debian 7 server.  Dynamic DNS is setup and working.  However, when a DHCP lease expires, the corresponding DNS records are not removed.  Our dhcp leases are set to expire in 48hrs.

For instance, if a laptop is on our network for a day, and then leaves, after the 48hrs, it's DNS entry is still there.  It remains until I manually delete it using nsupdate from the command line.

I've read a lot of conflicting info on this.  Apparently, a windows DHCP server has an option that can be set to delete A and PTR records when a lease expires, but I can't seem to find an option like that for Linux.  What am I missing?
