Answered my own question with a bit of research / understanding. The
GeoServer proxy is not the droid I'm looking for.

 

Instead (as a lot of users with the same issue point out) I should be
looking at:

 

a)      Setting up a reverse proxy on my IIS to push certain URLs over to my
GeoServer:8080 instance, or

b)      Getting GeoServer set up in IIS

 

A) is possible most easily with Microsofts ISA server, otherwise with a
variety of URL rewriters which I'm in the process of evaluation. 

 

Longer term B) seems 86% more elegant. Does anyone have any experience
running GeoServer in IIS?

Subject: IIS:80 and GeoServer:8080 Proxy Config

 

List,

 

I'd be forever grateful for a hand configuring my GeoServer proxy.

 

I'm trying to effect this code .

        

        var vlayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector(

                                "vector test", {

                                strategies: [new
OpenLayers.Strategy.Fixed()],

                                protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({

                                                url:
"http://smartmonkeys.ca:8080/geoserver/ows?";,

                                                version: "1.0.0",

                                                featureType: "Water_Points",

                                                featureNS:
"http://smartmonkeys.ca:8080/geoserver/ ",

                                })

                });

 

. on an html:80 page to my geoserver:8080.

 

Per the node here
(http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GeoServer+Proxy+Extension), I've
installed the GeoServer proxy extension and added smartmonkey.ca to my list
of hostnames.

 

That's where the smartmonkey runs out . Any pointers much appreciated, I'll
gladly contribute our success back into the project Docs.
