Access application via www.domain/folder

Gurus,

I have an application that runs on a machine on my LAN. Users on the lan
access it by navigating to the machine's IP address in IE.

Is there any way for me to allow some outside users to access this app., by
going to my website (server is on same network as app machine), ie
www.mydomain.com/app? Asking another way, is there some way to redirect the
user to an internal IP address?

Thanks for your time,

-Michael

Re: Access application via www.domain/folder

Hello,

My understanding of your message is that you have one public website and
one internal website. You want people to access parts of the internal
website from Internet using your public website, such as
www.publicwebsite.com/internalwebsite.

You cannot do this out-of-the-box with IIS. But you can use a product
called ISAPI_Rewrite to do it. You can of course also write your own
proxying module.

I *think* that ISA server can do this as well, but i am not 100% sure at
this moment.
