Why different ports? For your problem it is probably best to serve on
different interfaces/IPs

Probably you have to interfaces: one external and one internal. You will
need two seperated bind configuration directories (just copy
/etc/bind(9)). Then you need a (slightly modified) copy of
/etc/init.d/bind(9). You can use the option listen-on in your bind configuration
to restrict both binds to one IP address.

They do conflict, of course.
Maybe you should run your external bind chrooted and as user to enhance
security. (google will find some howtos).
