I know that the dns is working because when I do "ping www.google.es" 
from  internal host  this  work.
There are not other rules in the FORWARD chain, look:

    Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 2 packets, 100 bytes)
        pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     
source               destination

    Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
        pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     
source               destination

    Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 5958 packets, 2480411 bytes)
        pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     
source               destination

and if i do iptables -t nat -L -nvx, then:

    Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
        pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     
source               destination

    Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT 1 packets, 60 bytes)
        pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     
source               destination
           0        0 MASQUERADE  all  --  *      eth1    
0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0

    Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 1 packets, 60 bytes)
        pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     
source               destination

And this is all, :)
