I assume the route will actually have a host mask (/32) and that no other host
or subnet out of the network 209.20.159.x is used in your local network:

add route 209.20.159.65/32 209.20.190.1 1

Also, 209.20.109.1 will be the primary IP address of the DNS server and
209.20.159.65 is the secondary (virtual-domain) address.

Ugly, but doable.
