Indeed, the firewall was blocking the DNS requests.
I enabled the DNS service on the firewall for the dnsmasq machine and I

Thanks for your help,
Gary

Can you see the dnsmasq startup banners in the syslog?
Given the information we have so far, I think iptables rules blocking
the packets are the most likely explanation.
