the forward statements should point to the internal interface if the bind 
server is internal,
otherwise, you're asking it to connect to the external IP address, and by 
default this is
denied (you can allow it by adding a filter rule saying absorb but you'd 
better change
bind config).

So:

- configure the FW dns as you did: "cache only"
- configure the resolver as you did: point to internal bind
- configure the internal bind to forward to the FW internal address
- make the internal server "slave" (now "forward only"). This is the 
easiest way.
