Yes, you need to use split DNS. The configuration of the DNS zone for your domain name on the Internet is up to who is responsible for it. When setting up split DNS, your concern is the internal DNS server. That server needs to add the appropriate records contained in the public DNS server, such as www for an externally hosted web page.

On a small DSL network running w2k3, tzo, an ad Integrated DNS server with an internal name of corp.domain.com, and an external web presence of domain.com, do I need to implement a split-dns setup prior to setting up ISA 2000? The articles says to se split-dns only if the internal and external domain names are the same but I'm kind of confused on how the DNS server for the web server would be configured?
