intranet/extranet

[Jor]

Hi there!!

I'm very confused about DNS... I'm learning ;-|

1.- I've bought a domain and want to manage it in my own machine to serve
web pages and have an ActiveDirectory domain too, so I have both domains
with the same name "xyz.com".

2.- I have a primary zone "xyz.com" pointing to my DNS server and PDC (a
local intranet with class c subnet 192.168.0...) an a HOST A record pointing
to my public IP "www.xyz.com" inside the primary zone so the web pages are
accesible beyond my intranet. In the intranet everybody connect to the IIS
server with "xyz.com" and over there with "www.xyz.com" to see the pages.

3.- Now I want that clients can connect to the PDC through internet (ADSL)
changing their network ID to a Domain: xyz.com (they put the server public
ip in their primary DNS server). Cause my DNS is pointing to my intranet
(local class c address) everytime they try to connect get an error saying
that everything is ok, the server is reachable but the ips are incorrect,
how can I make a zone with the same domain name public and private?

Thanks in advance.

Mistake number one.

A split-horizon DNS can get you around most of this, but as long as
it's a new domain, why not change the internal dom ain to a different
name and solve all your troubles?

Hi, Jeff, thanks for your reply...

Changing the name all will be ok? what about the confusion to use different
names? I want to everybody use (e-mail address removed) for mail accountts and to
enter the PDC and Act. Dir. and the webpages...

How can I acomplish this?

Thanks in advance.

A split-horizon DNS. If those are your requirements.

Just to point out, if you are running Exchange or any other mail server, you
can configure the mail server to receive mail for your basediez.com zone.
With Exchange 2000 or 2003, just configure the recipient policy to be
authorative to receive mail for that domain name and configure the MX record
to point to your Exchange server. This is normal with Exchange. I host 25
different domain names for customers' emails and my AD domain name has
nothing todo with any of the names I'm hosting email for.
