I would suggest re--checking your bind configuration.  Make sure that the
options section of the named.conf file are set such that:
-the listen-on option contains an ip address that is reachable over the
network (i.e. ifconig eth0/en0 interface)
-the allow-query option is set so that it will accept connections from that
machine.

Regards, -Sayre
