Is the site accessible from the outside by the Public IP?
If it is you can clear the "Use default gateway on the remote network" on
the VPN connection. When this box is checked, the VPN client gets its
internet access from the VPN server, and the VPN client is getting DNS from
the public DNS, or the record is in the DNS Client cache. You can move the
VPN connection to the top of the binding order so it will try the DNS
servers on the VPN first, and clear the DNS client cache by running ipconfig
/flushdns. But if the VPN DNS server doesn't respond within one second one
of the public DNS servers may get moved to the preferred DNS and your back
to point one.
The best option is to clear the check box I mentioned and add names and IPs
to the hosts file for names that must always be resolved to the internal IP.
Otherwise adding nothing to DNS will unless the site is to never be
accessed without a VPN. If the case is that the site will never be accessed
without a VPN, you would have to create a record in the public zone with the
internal IP, and not all providers allow private records in the public zone;
or add the name to the hosts file.
