Glad that question got answered.  Also glad the query made it to
and back from your providers dns servers.

But does that answer why mybenefits.csplans.com didn't come up on
the nat'ed browser?  Did the browsers dns query get forwarded to
a different dns server or something?  Do you have a log of what
your firewall does with packets?  Maybe you can find a record of
its dropping a dns packet or something.
