Well.. I was excited for a moment, that maybe I had only forwarded TCP
traffic on 53, but I checked and it is set to forward both TCP/UDP. I
did remove the dual port forwarding and replaced it with a UPnP
forwarding UDP for 53, and the server disappeared to me altogether.
Switched it back, I can connect with nslookup.. I can ls -d acme.com to
get the whole zone, but if I try www.acme.com I get a DNS timeout. I am
wondering if something else is stealing the requests for UDP/53? I
cannot get the logs for the server to work other than the basic things
that are showing up in the event log (like zone transfers).

Any additional help is greatly appreciated, I have been banging my head
and things are starting to get dark =\
