In fact I have to create a HOST record for "intranet" on DNS inside the
COMPANY.COM domain, in order to reach my IIS server.
it's correct because when I ping intranet.company.com, it returns my the IP
of my IIS server. But when I type this on my IE, it still displays my my
internet site.

PS.: The internet site is not running on this IIS server, it's running on a
Linux Apache web server, and there's a BIND DNS Server that is solving
internet names (the internal Windows DNS is fowarding to BIND).
May this be afecting my name resolution ???
Any other help, please,
