how to use FQDN for a subdirectory in IIS 6.0

i think i am posting in the wrong section but cud not find a place to post this question. i have a application called vworkspace (www.vworkspace.com) which has a web-console. by default it has to be accessed by http://machinename/provision/web-it is there any way i can configure IIS in such a way that http://machinename/provision/web-it is accessed by using just FQDN.
