DNS split zone

We have a problem, we use different DNS Servers (windows and bind).

We need to override only one R-record in one external Zone and the rest should be forwarded. Like a local HOSTS-file.

I think we need a local zone file, but with only one record in it. So we would like to change the result of only one DNS-Address to an internal IP. Everything else should be forwarded like normal.

A solution for windows or bind should be fine.

Thanks in advance.

One solution is to create a zone with the Address.

e.g. Host www.xy.de
Zone www.xy.de
and assign the zone the desired IP

is there a different way?

Thank you all.

The DNS Server is used internally, and the real zone is not under our control so we don't know if there has been a change. So we need to redirect www to our internal Server, without any impact on our mail servers. All servers use the internal DNS and this forward to the provider.
