Question : how can i redirect ISA to publish a subsite on sharepoint?

is there anyway to publish a sharepoint subsite on ISA?
for example: our main Sharepoint site is: https://sharepoint.companyx.com
we have created the following subsite: https://sharepoint.companyx.com/dept/marketing/home.aspx

we have setup a DNS A record to publish a new public name:  newname.companyx.com and would like users to be able to type this new URL and be directed via ISA to the sharepoint subsite.

it works fine on the internal network [we have an IIS redirect in place]
it also works fine direct from the ISA server.

howerver when external clients connect via ISA they are directed to the main Sharepoint page.

any help would be much appreciated!

Answer : how can i redirect ISA to publish a subsite on sharepoint?

OK thanks. I was hoping there would be a way to accomplish this with ISA. I sounds like there is no possible way to publish anything to the right of the FQDN, based on what you are saying.

I just told you how.  You just have to accept the fact that you are not approaching it correctly,...and then approach it correctly.  Then everything is fine.   Your problem is not ISA and never was,...your problem is how you have the web server configured.

we were hoping that the users would not have to type in the long subsite name, and could just use an FQDN that would redirect to the subsite. [as it does internally and from the ISA server

Of course you can,..what I have been telling you gives you exactly that.  I'm telling you that if you do it correctly then the user will not type in a long URL,...but rather a short FQDN.
