DNS \ IIS Problem - Accessing web site from Internally PM 6/21/2007 7:46:00 PM I have a situation that stumps me: Company's internal DNS namespace is internal.company.org Company has a website of www.company.org I changed the forwarding on their existing proxy server to the internal exchange and web servers. Users from OUTSIDE the network can browse the web page correctly. Users from INSIDE cannot access it correctly. With my current internal and external domain configuration, could anyone please tell me how to configure DNS / IIS to allow users from inside the network to also be able to access www.company.org? Thanks PM

There should not be a zone conflict in this situation if there isn't an internal zone for company.org, however, if the web site for www.company.org is hosted on a local server, you will need a conflict zone so that www.company.org resolves to the local web server's IP. To do this, create a new forward lookup zone named www.company.org, in that zone, create one new host record, leave the name field blank, and give it the IP address of the local web server. With this zone, local requests are resolved by this zone while the rest of company.org gets forwarded to the external DNS. -- Best regards, Kevin D.
