Is xyz.com=3Dyahoo.com?
No? Then did you mean 'as opposed to if I ping yahoo.com'?
Or do you want to return an internal IP address for *any* outside query
practically isolating your network from ur internal users?
Or only for a (few) specific outside sites?
If you could be a bit more explicit in your description, it will be
easier to help you.
