Sanity check first:
Do you have a NAT gateway so you have to access the server with
a different IP number from inside clients? Try putting the
inside number in an entry for the server name in /etc/hosts
on a test client machine. If that works and you only have
a small number of inside clients you can copy the hosts file
around. If you have enough machines to make this impractical
then you need to work with DNS. There is an alternative to
views there as well unless you have to use the same DNS server
for internal and external users. If they can be separate servers,
just point the internal machines at a server that you configure
as primary for the domain in question and loaded with the internal
host addresses. You can maintain that with webmin if you don't
want to edit the files directly.
