How to only allow VPN connected users to access RemoteApps while a public SSL Certificate is issues?

Hi Everyone,

I have a Windows server that serves RemoteApps to remote users who connect by VPN. I also have an SSL Certificate bought from GoDaddy which is installed now on the server and is working fine. For security reason, I want to NOT allow any outsiders to be able to reach our domain which is:   https://apps.domain.com   and want only the VPN connected users to be able to brows https://apps.domain.com. I want to literally drop all packets for port 443 directed at the server from outside world on the main firewall.

How can I achieve this? This setup used to work for me just before I purchased an SSL Certificate as I was using private IP like 172.16.0.1 for the server and that was only accessible through VPN tunnel but now that I have an SSL certificate I have to use https://apps.domain.com and private IPs are not allowed in a certificate.

I appreciate any ideas on this. I am reading on split-DNS right now and not sure if that is the way to go.

Thanks
