You miss the point.  The DNS server, not behind a NAT, will end up

But clients send DNS queries to those caching servers (or their caching resolvers) directly, which apparently is what Chuck wanted to say.

If there are more clients behind NAT, you only can block all of them on your server... you should not block your own clients.

you could of course play with port ranges, we may assume if they are your clients you could know how the NAT is working...
