Hello,

Our internal domain name is mckeelacademy.com. We have a website hosted at the public domain mckeelacademy.com, with an A record registered with a public DNS registrar. Accessing the website at mckeelacademy.com works for external clients, however, when accessing it from our internal network, it always points to one of our web servers. How can I get this working so it points to the external web server?

Thanks!
 
You need to create a in your DNS with the IP address of the external website.

Yes, go to your internal DNS server and make sure you have a forward lookup zone for your domain and make sure you add an A record for "www" that points to the IP address of your externally hosted web server.

Good luck,
