I've got an identical configuration (openbsd firewall using my debian box on the internal net for DNS lookups). I don't remember the debian default config for bind, but look for (or add) a "listen-on" section to the options block in /etc/bind/named.conf. My options statement from that file looks like: options { directory "/var/cache/bind"; // If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want // to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source // directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked // questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 and later use an unprivileged // port by default. query-source address * port 53; // lots of DNS servers for redundancy forwarders { 24.88.1.67; 24.88.1.66; 130.207.244.251; 128.61.15.251; 130.207.244.244; 128.61.15.244; }; listen-on { 192.168.10/24; 192.168.11/24; 127.0.0.1; }; }; the 192.168 nets are internal networks that the debian box serves dns for.
