Intranet Website Addressing with WWW domain
Hi EE-
I’m looking to setup an internal address like “inside.company.com” for our intranet website. However, our internal domain is “corp.company.com”. Our external domain is “company.com”. We host our own external web server and I wanted to place the intrAnet site on the same server. We’re running Windows Server 2008 Webserver Edition and Server 2008 for AD/DNS.
Is it possible to give my internal users the address “inside.company.com” as opposed to “inside.corp.company.com” without compromising security? If so, how?
Please advise!

I didnt mention...we do not host the DNS for our external domain name (company.com); only our internal. Does that make a difference?

In your second sentence, when you mention, "consider adding only a zone" are you referring to adding it on my internal DNS server or external DNS server?
I do not understand how I can have my internal DNS configured to point to intranet.company.com when the parent domain is corp.company.com. It's no different than company.local.

In other words, if I create a DNS zone "inside" or "intranet" on my internal DNS the full name will read "inside.corp.company.com" as opposed to "inside.company.com"
Any ideas?
