Thanks, Tippy, just trying to help folks out. As for Justin, I agree it's
easier to just let the ISP or Registrar host a domain name on the Internet.
It's really not worth the effort, especially when you need multiple DNS
servers as in his case, two to host the external domain, and one to host
internal records.

As for your issue, read up on these two articles, specifically the
DNSUpdateProxy Group. I replied to your original post too with the same
exact info. Reply back in that thread in case anyone else contributes or
comments on it.
