IP Masquerading



Quick question, just so I make sure I understand this right.

If I were to set up my firewall box with masquerading, would I be able to
connect to an 'inside' box.  I'm certain that 'inside' boxes can get 'out'
and have info sent back to them (browsing WWW, for instance.)  But, could I
have a machine 'inside' called, 'www.bbros.com' on our masq'd subnet
(192.168.6.144,. perhaps) and then point my browser from an 'outside' host
toward 'www' and have the masq resolve this at all?

I'm sure there must be SOME way to do this, and I need to convince my boss
to remove the restriction of having co-existing subnets on the same
hardware, so that I can finish this blasted router...
