That's a good work-around, but it will not make his original problem go away. He's looking to resolve xyz.com, which happens to be his internal domain name. Robert, unless your DCs are also your web servers, you will have to forget about this idea. Your DCs use that address, and if you try to hack around it and make the address resolve to your web servers, you will be in a lot of troubles. Take Santhosh's recommendation and start telling your users that, because your internal and external names are the same, and because your DCs and Web servers are not the same machines (I hope), there is no "easy" way for them to reach xyz.com from the internal side.
