Off subject slightly. DNS through NAT on FreeBSD

Good morning everyone,

Sorry to post this slightly off subject message here, but I am getting a bit
desperate..

I personally run a small web hosting business out of my home, Up until
recently I was using an external DNS service to host my DNS since I only have
1 static IP Address. I have moved all DNS to my network with a secondary being
on an associates servers.

Here is my problem.

Being that I am only allowed 1 static IP with my current ISP ( Can't get
service through anyone else in my area ) I am using a NAT to allow for the
multiple machines. With this being the case, I installed the DNS (Bind8) on my
web server it seems to work fine internally if I pole it, however if you try
to do an nslookup from anywhere else outside of my network you get my
secondary DNS server. My primary should be ns.gemweb.net and the secondary
being ns1.cotse.com. I have the router configured to translate tcp and udp
port 53 to the correct internal IP address.

Does anyone out there know of anything special that I need to do in order to
make this work? Or do I simply have a mis-configurered DNS Server?

Again, sorry for the off topic, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Glenn May
