I had problems doing this a long time ago. I develop on Win/Apache and the production environment was NT/IIS and it didn't like not having the document name and caused errors. I never bothered to see if it could be 'fixed' in the IIS config, just went back to using index.cfm. It WAS on NT, so it was an older version of IIS, so YMMV.
