Hopefully this is a simple config / setup query...

System: Windows Server 2008 R2 running with 2003 compatibility; Tomcat 6.0.35; 
Geoserver 2.1.2; Java jre-6u33-windows-x64

I have a Geoserver application deployed within Tomcat webapps 
(webapps/geoserver212/) and a series of websites for static html content that 
are also within the webapps folder (e.g. webapps/site1/index.htm). When I'm 
logged in to the network environment, the site works perfectly (I think, 
because I have access to all of the resources). However, when publishing a site 
to an external facing URL, the static html content is visible, but the data 
that is called dynamically by WMS requests from geoserver212 is not available 
to the website. I suspect that this is because the URL points to the website 
folder but does not permit access to the geoserver212 folder. It has been 
suggested that I need to create a virtual directory for the geoserver212 
folder, similar to the example here: 
http://vicker313.wordpress.com/2009/08/08/add-tomcat-virtual-directory/ . I 
have tried adding a context path for geoserver212 in the server.xml file, 
however this does not help since there is already an application called 
geoserver212 and any calls to server location http://reaweb38/geoserver212  go 
there anyway.

What I'm trying to do falls under approach 1 in the following link: 
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/tutorials/staticfiles.html

Thanks in advance for any help.

Phil.
