Hi Ben,

Your first mistake was to name the local AD domain the same as the internet
domain.
The second mistake might have been that you didn't check the bindingorder of
the nics and made sure the internal nic is on top.

You will have to check the DHCP, WINS and DNS configuration. Post the
ipconfig/all.
