We are looking at trying to set up the following:

1) CF application engine
2) or more seperate web servers

the flow of data would be like this...

User comes in, and requests a CF page from web1. Webone sees it is a cf 
file, and passws the file off to the engine (on the same machine) 
(secondary question. when there is a .cfm file, does the web server 
retrieve it and pass it off to CF, or does the application server?). the CF 
engine processes it, and returns the results to the web server, which 
serves the page up to the user.

then...web2 recieves a request. the web server retrieves the file, sees it 
is a .cfm file, and passes it off to the CF engine on the web1 box. the Cf 
engine processes it, and returns the data to web2 which is then servered to 
the user.

the first part is normal, and easy, the second part makes it a little bit 
more interesting

the second part's data flow would go like this.
1) user makes request for a .cfm file
2) the web server (Apache) recieves the request
3) the web server reads the file from disk
4) the file is passed to CF on the other box
5) CF processes the file
6) CF sends the data back to the web server (Apache)
7) the web server serves it to the user.


I have found that CF in distributed mode almost does this. It seems to...

1) user makes a request for a .cfm file
2) the web server sees it is a .cfm file, and passws the request off to CF 
on the other machine
3) CF reads the file from disk
4) CF processes the file
5) Cf sends the results back to the web server (Apache).

can part #1 be accomplished?
