I take it that you run your own world acesable dns server? if so you would be best of setting up two views one for external consumtion. one for internal that way you can set machine.domain.com to answer the world with its public ip and the lan its internal ip. if however you dont control teh dns to the world you need to contact whoever looks after your dns to have it added to configure views in bind is fairly straight forward http://sysadmin.oreilly.com/news/views_0501.html has more details on it Dennis
