I re-read your first post.

http requests are probably looking at your sme server for the web site (which is not there).
I think you may need the proxypass contrib to redirect http requests to the win2K box where your web site actually is.
Here's an old post from my archives that may point you in the right direction.
I'm sure there is a updated contrib for sme 6.x.
Updated dmc-proxypass rpm's for 5.5 and 5.6.
I've tested with 5.6 successfully. Have not tested any others yet..
hopefully the community will provide feedback, if there is a problem.

ProxyPass to an Internal Host for E-Smith/SME (v5.6 and less... not tested on 6.x)
Developer: Darrell May
Contributor: Abe Loveless (abe_AT_lovelesscentral.org)
Brief Description:
This package can be used to allow external access to web content on
internal web servers through your E-Smith/SME Gateway. There are 2 ways to do this.
1. You can choose a sub-directory of your e-smith web server and direct that
subdirectory to an internal host. For example: You can take the following url
(
http://YOUR.ESMITH.ADDRESS/frontpage/) and use ProxyPass to forward the "frontpage"
directory to your Win32 server with Frontpage Server Extensions installed. All other
content would be displayed from the E-Smith web server, like normal.
NOTES:
1. Don't ProxyPass the server root("/")... you won't be able to get back to
the server-manager
2. Remember to add the trailing slash when you create the directory name
2. You can create a Virtual Domain on the E-Smith server and forward all content
for that virtual domain to an internal server. (See below for details.)
Section 2 Name: ProxyPass VirtualDomains to an Internal Host
Description:
This program will allow your SME Server Gateway to forward web sites for
Virtual Domains to the appropriate Internal IP address. For example,
take a look at the following scenario.
1. You have multiple websites hosted on a web server (Windows 2000, or other)
2. Each of these websites is bound to an individual IP address
3. Each of these websites has its own registered domain name
4. You want to put your web server behind your SME gateway (security reasons)
By creating a virtual domain for each of your registered domains, we can
configure the SME server to forward all requests for the given domains to
their respective internal IP addresses.
Directions:
1. Login to your SME server console as root
2. Download the package
