We are using Sharepoint Services 3.0 and are trying to configure an anonymous sharepoint site inside of an existing application pool that has some sites that require access. The sharepoint site is behind an ISA server.

We have no problems setting up a site that is anonymous, but the problem comes in when we put the site behind the ISA server.

After the site is set up, and we tell ISA server to allow access directly to it, for example allow access to /sitename/* none of the css and javascript files load, as well as the default Images. We have found this to be due to all of the paths being put in as /_layouts/ or /_catalogs/ instead of _layouts/ and _catalogs (as examples).

So all of the css files are trying to load fromhttps://domain.com/_catalogs/ Instead ofhttps://domain.com/sitename/_catalogs/

This really seems like a bug to me as all of the files are also duplicated under the site.

We thought that perhaps just enabling ISA to access the root _catalogs and other directories that the problem would be solved. When we tried this, the site more or less displayed without any problems, but all of the other non-anonymous sytes would now prompt for the ISA login, and then again prompt for a server side login. Interestingly enough, IE7 does NOT have this problem, but IE6 and Firefox prompt twice...

So to cut to the chase, is there any way to make the default path for everything in my master file /sitename/whatever or whatever/ instead of /etc/ or some other workaround with sharepoint or ISA.

I have found that hard coding in the correct url works, but I'd rather not do that for everything and don't know how to automate the scripts that Sharepoint adds for just certain browsers.
