Best Answer

DNS doctoring enables an internal host on a LAN to receive the Private ip of an internal server as an answer from a DNS query when using a DNS server that is outside the LAN, such as on the internet. A static NAT translation must also exist to translate the public IP to the private IP. Without DNS doctoring, the external DNS server will reply with the public IP address of the host on the internal LAN.
