i'm a bit confused;
i've a domain with A record 1.1.1.1 and the customer is on leased line;
we relay mail to 1.1.1.1 -wan IP (the router at customer side and it works fine)

now customer need a website by the domain name; web server is apache; i've created CNAME www and ftp for the domain; but while think of hosting this domain i've to add additional IP (1.1.1.1)to apache machine; but that will cause problem as 1.1.1.1 is already assigned to router at customer side

how can i sort this out! should i add another A record for this particular domain?!
help

The website a record needs to point to a public IP. if 1.1.1.1 is internal you will not be able to view that website outside the building
