So i did this:
nslookup hotmail.com

I think this is only fatal with nslookup, but DNS servers should be able to reverse-resolve their own IP address to a name and apparently your forwarding server doesn't know your private addresses either. What does 'dig @localhost' say on the box itself?
The right fix is to configure either this or the upstream server as primary for the 192.168.0 zone. Otherwise you'll toss thousands of these queries up to the root servers.
zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "192.168.0.arpa"; allow-update { none; }; }; If you don't know the format for the zone file mentioned, you might want to use webmin to build it.
The box's name is Enoch.emmanuelcomputerconsulting.com ip is 192.168.0.200 set statically.
Does your upstream server resolve that domain or your private addresses?
