Problems with upgrade to 9.5.1b1

I'm running bind 9.3.4 (a Fedora Core distro version) and trying to
upgrade to (technically, replace it with) 9.5.1b1. I simply ran
configure (no options) and make and then installed it. Since it
installs in /usr/local, that doesn't create a problem as I can run one
version of the other.
I'm doing initial testing with nslookup and the problem I'm seeing with
9.5.1b1 is that while it correctly resolves in all cases for host names
and IP addresses that are local (i.e., names/addresses for which it's
authoritative), when I try other lookups, for instance, www.cnn.com,
nslookup I get different results, depending on whether or not the query
is coming from a machine in the same address segment is the DNS server.
Queries coming from machine within the same IP segment as the DNS server
work fine. Queries coming from machines in different address segments
get th response:
** server can't find <host name>: REFUSED
At the same time I get a log entry like:
client 10.219.255.250#39750: view internal: query (cache)
'www.cnn.com/A/IN' denied
I get this using the same db files and named.conf file that 9.3.4 runs
against and I don't have this problem with 9.3.4. I'm assuming that
it's some sort of configuration issue, but I don't know what. Any
ideas? Would it help if I posted my named.conf file (or would I
becreating an issue for mself by making that file public).
