If the website will answer to the hostname he uses...that could be trouble. I
posted this idea on his other post on the exchange list. Probably better to
toss the idea out for discussion here.....
I would put up my own webpage for this...... myredirector.mydomain.com and
have that page redirect them to the public IP address. Let's assume that the
public IP is 207.54.159.2
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh"
CONTENT="1; URL=207.54.159.2 ">
Should work.....I think. Maybe.

Add a CNAME to your internal DNS with the Public IP???

Windows 2003 domain. There's a website at a hosting location to which I'd like
to point domain users via a locally created DNS name. The website does not have
a public domain name but does have a public IP of course. Can this be done?
