We have an HTTPS site called https://mycompanyname.com/
We're a single Windows Domain, with 2 sites LA and NY. Both sites have their own ISA 2004 server, we use seperate PAC files for Intnernet Explorer in each site and the HTTPS site is hosted on a server in NY.
In LA if we point IE directly at the ISA server in NY the page loads fine, but if we go via the LA PAC file it will load but is very, very slow and doesn't load all the graphics.
We're thinking it maybe something to do with DNS?? Though we could be wrong.
Any ideas how we can find out where the hold up is and rectify.
Thanks

any other takers??
Plus, anyone know why when we point a PC in LA to the LA ISA server and set to bypass proxy for local addresses it doesn't work, but, if we point to the NY ISA server and set to bypass proxy for local addresses it does?!
Can i add a DNS entry interenally for https://mycompanyname.com/
Cheers
It sounds like your local address entries in the LA ISA server are not correct.
You cannot specify protocols (HTTPS) or subdirectories in DNS. You can only specify host names and what IP address they resolve to. If you wanted to, you could create another IIS virtual server for the subdirectory that responds to a different IP address and then set up a DNS host record to point to that address. Not that I would recommend doing that - but you could do something like that.

For internal sites, remember to exclude them from your proxy settings otherwise you will be attempting to access internal sites through ISA and back in wich usually doesn't even work.
