Question : Same internal and external domain namespace

My company’s internal domain name is the same domain name as our website.  Our website is being hosted with a 3rd party hosting company.  Let’s say the domain name is Krash.com.  
 

I knew that by having the same internal and external namespace, we would not be able to access our website from the internal network without doing some configuration.  The biggest problem is the server hosting our website is named “server.Krash.com”.  Again this server it outside of our network, we do not own it.  So, now I can’t access any website on that server.  Even though other websites on that server have completely different domain names, because the server itself is named server.Krash.com I can’t access any website on that server.
 

I thought I could just set up a host record in the forward look-up zone of my DNS server, however when creating a host record the internal domain name is automatically appended to the host name.  For example, if I try to set up a record for website1.com, DNS will append Krash.com to it so it looks like: website1.com.Krash.com.  

 

Can someone please tell me how to fix this?  I think you can do something with a proxy server to fix this.  I don’t know much about that.  Is there any way I can set up DNS to forward traffic request for server.Krash.com to a particular IP address?  I don’t want to set up a proxy in a DMZ while standing on one foot and rubbing my flux capacitor or anything complicated like that.
 

Thanks in advance!

Answer : Same internal and external domain namespace

Put a new A record in your forward lookup zone such that www=IP address of your hosted web site. our

'oursite' IP of that web server. DNS will append yourdomain.com and route TCP correctly.
