Yes, it's WinNT4 sp6, and CF5 The server has been in and stable for ages - at least 8 months, and just in the last 2 weeks given me problems like this. I've looked and looked for what changed and I'm damned if I can see what it is.
We have VNC to log into the console. We only have to go to the physical server to change a backup tape or put a CD in to install something. The CF CD isn't in the slot so to install CF again I'll have to go over there. Other wise I can do everything from here.

In my experience, yes. You should be able to do this remotely via Telnet or one of those glorified telnet tools PCAnywhere or Terminal Services. Don't know what OS you are running. Is this CF5? Did you check your script mappings in IIS, assuming you are using winblows?
