I am not sure on your first one.  Did you check on Novells tech
support website?

I think that you have worded the question a bit wrong.  What you are
wanting to do is to run a DNS domain for a private domain on the
Internal LAN and still be able to resolve Internet addresses.  You
can setup the DNS server (BIND) with a zone for the domain that you
want to use internally (something like home.local).  You then point
the clients to your firewall box as the DNS server.  If the client is
looking up something in home.local then your DNS server will respond
with the address.  If the request is for something other than the
local segment then the server will perform a lookup by contacting the
root zone on the Internet and going from there.  It is pretty
straight forward.  

If you are using Windows with Active Directory on the internal
network and want to use the Windows DNS server you can either point
to that (the server will talk through the firewall to do a lookup) or
you can setup the Windows DNS server to use a forward pointing to the
DNS server for the Internet if it cannot resolve the address locally.
