Yeh, run an internal DNS server which resolves the site differently on the inside of your network to the internal address. Any other workaround is considered shitty by most people, like: ipfw divert natd all from any to any via $outside_int ipfw divert natd all from any to any via $inside_int However, this would probably work [not sure].
