Ok, since it is not working how it is now... then perhaps you'll try the
following...
setup your modem to point to internode DNS servers for DNS queries.
Point your internal DNS server to point to the MODEM for upstream DNS
queries.
Don't set it up as DDNS. Just forwarding DNS to the next upstream DNS
server in the chain if you know what I mean to get external DNS resolution.
Also have port 53 TCP and UDP on your modem (coming in) to port forward
to your internal DNS server.
Thanks,

Hi Kyle,
Do you have a static IP?
## Yes.
Have you set your modem up to forward DNS queries to internode DNS
primary and secondary?
## No. There shouldn't be any need. I run an internal DNS on CentOS
5.5. (Ok, at this point, I'm trying to run an internal dns :-( )
Are you hosting your own domains?
## From an internal client dns perspective, yes.
If so, is your internal server setup as the primary name server for
your own domains or are you using a third party DNS service or
internode DNS services (I'm presuming they have these services)
If not, are you pointing your internal server to your modem IP as the
forwarder for DNS queries?
## Yes. I run an internal authoritative dns (from my 192.168 subnet's
clients' perspective) It is set up to go out to the www and root
servers if it can't find what it's looking for. At least, I believe it
is. I'm beginning to doubt myself.
