DNS/domain name problem

I'm having a problem browsing to our website from our lan. I can
browse to it from our DMZ or anyone else outside our network can see
it fine. I was thinking I need to add that domain to our internal DNS
server. I see "com" domains under cached lookup but I don't know how
to add a domain to "com". Is this the right direction or should I be
looking else where?

Thanks,
Tom

Open Forward Lookup Zones and add your domain there.
Use the format domain.com, then add records for www, ftp, mail or what ever
then give the records the IP you need to connect to the site. If it is
external use the public address if it is behind your NAT device use your
server's private address.

I have my "domain.com" under forward lookup zones. It has lots of
hosts in the right column. Everything works fine except viewing our
website from a computer on the lan. The website is hosted off sight.

In this zone do this:
Add a host named www pointing to the public address of your website, if you
want to access the site by domain.com that is another issue if this is your
AD Domain, if it is not the name of your AD Domain you just add a blank
record with the public IP of the website.
