Thank you all for your help. My problem has been resolved with a slight
modification to the permit udp statement.

Hi,
You're right DNS client and DNS server have different behavior.
Here the different direction of communication between 2 DNS servers :
incoming service : query or response between 2 servers via UDP : source port
53 - dest port 53
outgoing service : query or response between 2 servers via UDP : source port
53 - dest port 53
incoming service : query from external server to internal server via TCP and
zone transfer request from ext.secondary server : source port > 1023 - dest
port 53
incoming service : answer from internal server to external server via TCP
and zone transfer response to ext. secondary server : source port 53 - dest
port > 1023
outgoing service : query from internal server to external server via TCP :
source port > 1023 - dest port 53
outgoing service : answer from external server to internal server via TCP :
source port 53 - dest port > 102
you should allow all these connection through your Cisco router.
