  With something link BIND 9 which can do split DNS views of the 
  outside world and inside world having "split DNS" literally means
  you have to change two lines of zone configs instead of one. 

  So for example, if you're adding new-host.domain.com to both you
  have have to add it into db.domain.com-external and
  db.domain.com-internal and rndc reload the config.  I'm still
  wondering why this is "hard".
