A packet can not go through NAT twice... i.e. if you use the
domain which resolves to a public IP address it will go through the
router (NAT) and then back to the server (NAT) which will fail... we
had this problem and the solution for us was to set up an internal
DNS server that resolved the domain names for our servers to
private IP address... instead of www.somesite.com resolving to
1.1.1.1 you get it to resolve to 192.168.0.1...
You could also achieve the some outcome using hosts files.... I
think...
