Sounds like ipnat will do what you need. Just port forward requests to pub_ip:53 udp/tcp to your internal machines. rdr xl0 pub_ip port 53 -> named_ip1,named_ip2,named_ip3 port 53 round-robin Seems to me that rule will work for you, long as you set the gateways on those named_ip's to the ipnat machine, and it'd be fine.
