Using the same domain with two seperate contents is just bad practice.
And when you decide to use DNSSec sometime in the future it will leave
your home network inoperable, because the trust delegations won't work
anymore.

Thanks very much for your responses, much appreciated. Sounds like
creating a home subdomain is the way to go (I've seen this mentioned
online), so I'll go down that path.

I meant to comment earlier, but forgot....

But was this server actually doing both internal and external DNS? Seemed to me you only had internal plus wanting to do resolutions? Which to me seems would be common situation.

Because, I have a dyndns domain that is also what I've been using as the domain of my home network.

Use the outside dyndns hostname as the domain on the inside

so dynhost.dyndom.tld on the outside, and

host1.dynhost.dyndom.tld
host2.dynhost.dyndom.tld
etc.

on the inside. Though at a later point I turned on the wildcard feature so that I could appear to access the same service whether I was on the inside or outside of my network. used different port numbers and the router would forward it to the desired host.

More recently, went to a DMZ host with proxy servers (ran out of port forwards).

But, could have an external hosted domain with more than just a single IP.

Had done that back with my first employer, the external hosted on the service providers nameservers, and our internal servers did the internal. (along with resolutions with root.hints...)

The only bad things was that both internal servers were primary...the other administrator refused to be slave, even though he also didn't want my responsibilities (or to be the one crawling around the office Friday afternoons when the 10Base2 network would mysteriously break....)

If DNSSEC is involved....don't see why signing internal with same KSK and ZSK as the external wouldn't be a problem.

Its how I'm doing things here at work. The way I have it, it doing signing of internal first...that way internal servers see the change sooner...

The only thing I haven't grasped is how to make DNSSEC work if my link goes down.
