Is it absolutely necessary to manually configure IIS6 to use ASP.NET MVC?

I have a web hosting that replied to me it was not possible to alter the IIS6 settings to set the mapping of .mvc to the Asp.Net ISAPI dll, nor enable Wildcard Application Mappings.

In short, I cannot change any IIS setting.

Is there any way to run ASP.NET Mvc in that conditions?

Note: I read a few related questions here about this, but didn't understand them in some cases, and it wasn't what I needed in others. I'd appreciate it if before closing this one as duplicate, there was an explanation as to why, and perhaps a paraphrasing of another question.

Thanks

if mapping to .aspx exist, try the solution found here to add a route to end up in *.mvc.aspx

routes.Add(new Route("{controller}.mvc.aspx/{action}", new MvcRouteHandler())
{
    Defaults = new RouteValueDictionary (new{ controller = "YourController"} )
});

For what I investigated you have to ways, one is to tell IIS that all pages has to go thru ASP.NET - gif , css etc. - this way asp.net knows how to process every page. The other is to write a HttpModule, or something like this. I did the first one. I dont believe that you have any other option.

Maybe this will help: ASP.NET MVC on IIS6
