Access internal web server with domain name
I was wondering what is the best method for allowing internal computers to access our locally-hosted web server with www.somedomain.com? I believe the internal clients are unable to do so because of how firwalls/NAT works(?). Is there a way I can add an entry in my DNS server? I am using Windows Server 2003. Thanks!
