Ladies and gents,
    My problem seems extremely simple, yet its driving me absolutely nuts.  
    Logs are stating that the server is starting up properly and is listening on all the interfaces (default)
    I take the firewall rules down (to be sure, although its configured properly)
    
    When I do nslookup (from the console)
        server localhost
            yahoo.com
            replies just fine
        server wanip
            yahoo.com
            times out


WHAT THE HECK?

Here's a snapshot of /var/log/messages:
 starting BIND 9.1.0 -u named

    Here's the top section of my named.conf

options {
        directory "/usr/local/named";
        pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";
        transfer-format many-answers;
        notify yes;
        multiple-cnames yes;
        allow-transfer {
                blabla;    
                blablabla;
                127.0.0.1;
                };
        also-notify {
                secondarydnsserverasdfasdf;
                };
        };

zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/usr/local/named/root.hints";
        };
