Use two separate domain names, even if you register the internal one. You can avoid all manner of political complexity this way plus support all your external services as well.

We are having discussions to decide on a new internal domain name. I know that years ago, it was best practice to have a different internal domain name from your external domain name, which is what the Novell guy is holding onto, like a pitbull to a mailman's leg. Is that still true today? We are on private IPs internally, so external forces can't route to the inside anyway, so my thinking, and the other Windows admins, is that having the same FQDN internally would be ok.
