Daniel,

I thought there was a way of configuring IIS to by default go to a
certain url.
Anyway, I haven't tested this but in theory should work, have you
tried to configure httpHandlers so that:

   <httpHandlers>
      <add path="*.vm" verb="*" type="System.Web.HttpForbiddenHandler"
validate="true"/>
      <add path="/Default.aspx" verb="*"
type="System.Web.UI.PageHandlerFactory" validate="true"/>
      <add verb="*" path="*.aspx"
type="Castle.MonoRail.Framework.MonoRailHttpHandlerFactory,
Castle.MonoRail.Framework"/>
    </httpHandlers>

So this way(in theory) the System.Web.UI.PageHandlerFactory will have
a go at serving the file first.
And then all you need is a default.aspx that does the redirect.

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>

<script runat="server">
    protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
    {
        Response.Redirect("~/Home/Index.aspx");
        base.OnLoad(e);
    }
</script>

  "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
    <title>Site Name</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>
        If you were not redirected, please <a href="/Home/
Index.aspx">click here</a>.
    </p>
</body>
</html>

Cheers
John
