I'm not sure if I fully recommend it, but I've
gotten around this by adding
a conditional in my LocalSettings.php to set $wgServer to the ip
if $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] looks like my local network. Probably safe
enough for temporary access.
$wgServer is used to construct urls, like the css links, so that's why your
skin will mostly go away if it's not set correctly.

Interesting! if I don't set $wgServer I get
the same behaviour if I
access
the wiki internally and via the intranet.
Unfortunately I don't get the
vector theme in either though.
