howto connect internal server and hostname

I have a server ip adress for example 192.168.0.10
We have a hostname and server ipadress.
For example hostname.nl 80.128.180.160

How can I connect this with Astaro.
I mean if you type external hostname.nl then it connects to 192.168.0.10

greetings
Anton

Uuummm, this is how things should work, it's called split-brain DNS. When accessing an internal resource from within your LAN it should use the internal IP and the same resource accessed from outside of your LAN should use the WAN ip address. Attempting to access an internal resource from within the LAN using the external IP would create a loop.

Are you experiencing issues with accessing the internal resource from an external host? If this is the case, then you need to create a DNAT rule to translate incoming packets for the external IP to the internal address of the server. You would also need to make certain that your external DNS records point to the correct external IP.
