-Also note here I'm using violet.com **//not//** iViolet.net. This is an important distinction as I do not own violet.com (too rich for my blood), so when forwarding to this address internally,  whatever is actually hosted on violet.com is not accessible to me. In most cases, this is fine, however, you would not want to choose "google.com" as your designated internal domain name, as whenever you visited the URL internally, it would forward to what you have set in dns, instead of google. It's recommended you choose something you don't intend to use, or even better, an external/public hostname which you own (iViolet.net). Then you can configure your proxy server in a manner where something like wiki.iViolet.net is accessible both internally and externally from the same hostname, without any dns manipulation. More on that in Helder's proxy guide.+Also note here I'm using violet.com **//not//** iViolet.net.
