Do not quite understand. Domain is related to name search, and has nothing
to do with routing.
Are you saying that the remote computer has an Internet address (of form
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that is in the same network as the local area network? If
so, then you can set up a proxy ARP at the router. Then the router will
respond both to its own address and to that remote address, and will route
packets intended for that remote address to the remote address. If you are
using Linux PPP, selecting the "proxyarp" option will automatically add an
entry to the system ARP table and set up the route so that remote packets
get to where they should go.
