slow query question

[jeff donovan]

greetings
I think i have my dns setup incorrectly but i can't put my finger on 
where the problem is.

i have two dns servers; one internal and one external of a firewall.

machines on the inside of my network have to send a second request to 
obtain an address. if i use the external dns the reply is much faster.

Where in the config files do I look to find where my internal dns Is 
requesting it's information from? does it get it's info from 
resolv.conf?
running bind 9.2.2

TIA
