[Assuming you're using dnscache on 192.168.1.254 and tinydns
on 127.0.0.1.  Please explain your DNS setup better if not.]

You probably need a line like

  .writers.name.external:192.168.1.254

too.  Also put "writers.name.external" in
/etc/tinydns-private/env/DOMAINS so dnscache looks to
tinydns for writers.name.external addresses.  After
making changes to the tinydns data file you need to run
"tinydns-data" or restart it (svi tinydns restart).

Check out

for a thread that troubleshoots a situation very similar
to yours.  There are also good docs at:

  http://leaf.sf.net/devel/jnilo/tinydns.html
  http://leaf.sf.net/devel/jnilo/dnscache.html

if you haven't seen them already.
