Internal Vs External DNS & Resoloution

Hi,

My Situation is this.  

I have 1 servers to be deployed.

Server A. 10.1.1.1

This server hosts several different application blades for Mitel applications.

AWC, which controls the teleworker and conferencing phones and application.
UCA, which is the Unified Messaging Client from Mitel which has a Client PC, and Mobile option.

In order for these to be reachable from any where we are using the public DNS name for theses servers.

Public DNS. Company.com
Resolve to: Internal IP Nat Firewall.

How ever this DNS Looup zone is not defined in my Microsoft DNS Server.

Internal DNS: Abbriviated.com

By adding a forward looup zone to my internal DNS for Company.com what would I have to be aware of if I am only going to define a single address to multiple names.

10.1.1.1 / xxx.Company.com
10.1.1.1 / xxx.Company.com

The reason I need to add this to my internal DNS is because we are going out and back in again via the internet to make the connection to this server and applications which is not working.

The best option would be the DNS subdomain zone as posted above.  It's a nightmare to mirror the same DNS zone with internal and external records for the same hosts.
