Hi all,
Is there any way to do the following:
We currently host RWW and OWA internally on our SBS box, and a subdomain email.domain.com is linked to our static IP address for external access. Therefore, we just type in email.domain.com/Exchange for OWA and email.domain.com/Remote for RWW. However, internally, we can only access OWA and RWW by doing domain.local/Exchange and domain.local/Remote.
Is there any way of being able to use email.domain.com/Exchange (or Remote)? I realise that i just have to create another Forward Lookup Zone, with Host (A) records for email.domain.com HOWEVER, as email.domain.com is off our domain.com company website, it does not allow us to view our website anymore which is hosted externally.
Any ideas?
Thanks all

As you stated, create the domain.com zone and provide the IP for the host "email." You will also want to create a 'www' record as well and provide the external IP. For 'www' you can also delegate the zone. This way if the ISP changes the IP address, it will find the new IP. To delegate, rt-click domain.com, choose new Delegation, type in www, then provide the ISP's DNS servers that are authorative for the zone. Not sure what are authorative? Use nslookup to ask 4.2.2.2, an external DNS, for the info:
nslookup server 4.2.2.2 set q=soa domain.com
