We've used a simple system for our Intranet application.
- Our Active Directory domain name is ourcompany.internal (actually, we use our real company name, but I'd rather not put that on a public board).
- Our in-house DNS servers are integrated with Active Directory. Our DNS servers query OpenDNS for queries outside our internal network.
- Every machine in our network uses our inhouse DNS servers.
- the home page of every machine is set to http://server, which goes automatically to http://server.ourcompany.internal
Inhouse queries are handled by the Intranet server, and everything else goes to the Internet. There was no need to buy a domain name.
This was easy to set up, and it's worked flawlessly for years.
