I predict that the Web designer will now demand that 
domain.net<http://domain.net> resolve to the external Web server.

Great catch.  It does the same thing externally.  The 
www.domain.net<http://www.domain.net> gets redirected 
domain.net<http://domain.net>.  Since, I’m outside, it resolves to the correct 
NS with GoDaddy.

The web designer must have added a redirect.   However, this was working just 
fine after the website was pushed out.

When you hit it externally, with an external computer/phone using external DNS 
what happens?

When you do nslookup on either of those, do you get what’s expected?  I can’t 
think of a good reason www should resolve to just the domain name, unless there 
is another www record besides the one you want.

Subject: [NTSysADM] DNS issue with SBS 2003

I have client who has their internal domain name the same as their external 
domain name.  They are running SBS 2003.  Issue is when someone internally 
types in http://www.domain.net, it drops the www and redirects to 
http://domain.net and displays the SBS Webserver.  This was working fine till 
yesterday.  There is a www record set, on the internal dns, to resolve to an 
outside IP.

Any suggestions on how to fix or to keep the www in place?

-Jimmy
