Since you don't have access to the Windows boxen, it seems to me that
this is a candidate for the "old sniff the firewall" trick.
Sniff the DNS traffic on the internal facing connection of your
firewall (you DO have a firewall, don't you?) and see which IP
addresses the DNS requests are originating from. If from your Windows
boxen, then the forwarding is working correctly. (You ARE getting dns
requests resolved on the non-windows clients are you not?)
If not from the Windows boxen, then there is an error in your setup.
