I have been reading up on all the pages mentioned in this thread and
here is what I have tried to configure:

I didn't change anything on A (=public, = http://mike2.openmethodology.org)

I added the following variables to the internal wiki:
$wgSharedUploadPath="http://mike2.openmethodology.org/images/";
$wgUseSharedUploads=true;
$wgHashedSharedUploadDirectory=false; (although by default this was
uncommented in my LocalSettings file)

But I can't get it to work.

We want a similar setup like Wikipedia and Wikimedia. All our free
content is on mike2.openmethodology.org (=Wikimedia) and our internal
wiki can pull any content from the open site. Any article or image on
mike2 can be transcluded from the open site by any wiki that we
specify (otherwise we will get hit with hotlinking)
