how to change isc-dhcp3-server replies?

I found out where my dhcp offers are going.  It seems my dhcp offers are being sent out my external port instead of my internal port.

Anyone ever have a problem where the internal port is setup as a server and for some reason natd kicked in and sent the data out using the external ip?

Thanks,
