Well, sorry to chime in here, but you're just suggesting a
work around, not a real solution (which is to be running
a caching named on the gateway machine). 

Uli, could you check if your named works as expected?
The following applies to 5.x, adjust as necessary for 4.x:

1. does named indeed run on the gateway?

   gw# ps ax | grep named

  277  ??  Ss     8:29.33 /usr/sbin/named -u bind -t /var/named
18582  ??  Ss     1:54.00 /usr/sbin/syslogd -l /var/run/log -l
/var/named/var/r
81756  p1  S+     0:00.02 grep named

2. does named listen on all relevant interfaces (sockstat -46)?

   You should get something like this:

   gw# sockstat -46 | grep bind

   bind     named      277   20 udp4   192.168.254.1:53      *:*
   bind     named      277   21 tcp4   192.168.254.1:53      *:*
   bind     named      277   22 udp4   127.0.0.1:53          *:*
   bind     named      277   23 tcp4   127.0.0.1:53          *:*
   bind     named      277   24 udp4   *:59582               *:*
   bind     named      277   25 tcp4   127.0.0.1:953         *:*

  (one random port must be open to the outside world, so named
  can get replies (?), other ports must be open to the inside net(s))

3. using dig from the gateway, querying the local named,
   whan happens?

4. using dig from a host != gateway (on your local net),
   what happens?

5. Can you ping outside NUMERICAL IP address from your local net?

   % ping 66.94.229.254            (www.altavista.com)
