Barry,
Thank-you for the suggestion, however if you look at the zone config that I included in my original email you will see that what you have suggested is exactly what I have done originally. Each zone has an "allow-query { any; };" setting including the reverse zone that currently doesn't work for some strange reason.

Since you have "allow-query {wemadenets;};", clients outside that
network will NOT be allowed to make recursive requests against your
server.
But if you really don't want to change the allow-query option, you can
put "allow-query {any;};" within all the zone stanzas. That will just
allow public queries for those zones, not for recursive or cached data.
