The answer by @Drew-LeSueur is correct for socket.io >= 1.0.

As I was using socket.io 0.9, I found the old way of doing it in the doc.

// in 0.9
var socket = io.connect('localhost:3000', {
  'resource': 'path/to/socket.io';
});

// in 1.0
var socket = io.connect('localhost:3000', {
  'path': '/path/to/socket.io';
});

Notice that a / appears as first character in the new path option.
