create a virtual directory in IIS, point it to a "different machine" (an
option in  the create VD screen), and use a UNC to tell it where to look.
mapping a drive will only work if you map is as the service in whose context
the CF server runs.

Can I host .cfm files on a different server than my cold fusion server?
I am currently hosting all my .cfm files on an NT server running coldfusion.
For security reasons I would like to be able  host my .cfm intranet files on
our novell server. I have been succesful setting up a virtual directory that
allows
the nt server to view directorys and files that are located on the novell
box ,
but when i call a .cfm page I get a 404 error.
Do I need to change my root development
mapping on the cold fusion server? I have tried to browse to the novell
machine
but cf only sees local drives.

Help please!
Malcolm

Thanks for your response---
I have not had any trouble w/ users editing the cf_includes
They are invisible when the document is viewed in word unless you choose
view html source---Most of my users are not advanced enough to know what
view html source even means. I did not really understand the rest of your
explanation.

I have never created a macro before---Can I attach this to the template?
Why do you not like this idea?

Hi Malcolm,

I' m a little confused by the first part of the question - however I have
some suggestions of the no2.

a) Don't include the cfinlcude etc in your Word Template , instead create a
handler which includes the middle bit (the HTML created by your users) in
between the cfincludes . this will get around the .cfm problem & also stop
users from removing the cfincludes from the template.

b) write a AutoClose macro for word that saves the file as .cfm (I don't
really like this idea...)
