I remember my 'nix guy mentioned some kind of discovery type functionality
going on when setting up in distributed mode. The front end mysteriously
"spoke" to the app server to register itself as the "front end". Something
to that effect...Was weird...kinda cool though.

For the life of me, I can't imagine what this "extra" logic could be doing.
The web server gets a request with a file extension, it hands that request
off to the CF server. If anything else is going on in there, that may raise
potentially interesting questions for optimal server configuration. It would
be nice if MM would provide a little information about how this may impact
filesystem permissions and the like. Can you provide a hint about what this
logic does?
