You mean you have it configured to access from the LAN by typing in:
http://mydomain ?

And you want to access it by typing in:
https://www.mydomain.com ??

First, create a www record under you mydomain.com zone and give it the
internal IP address.
Create the additional hostheader by adding www.mydomain.com to the list.
Then configure it to only allow a secure connection (assuming you have the
certificate already installed).
