Ok, I admit I didn't really read all this stuff, I just took a cursory scan. So, if I'm totally off on this just ignore me.... Anyway, How about using secondary IP's on the NICs so you can have one set of addresses you don't control (and get outside etc.) and another set you do control and are part of your mini-domain?
