Perhaps, but it's important to some people. > I'm at a loss for why I'd want to duplicate the functionality of the > ColdFusion administrator. You're missing the point. The scenario is that you create an application that is going to be packaged and distributed as a J2EE application. You do not want or need to expose the entire CF Admin as part of that application - you've already set up all the admin settings when you packaged the app for deployment. The app might need some configuration after deployment - perhaps a data source setup, perhaps your app is only coded to support MySQL and SQL Server - so you build a simple admin that allows the purchaser of your packaged app to configure the app to talk to their existing MySQL or SQL Server database. > disable the ColdFusion administrator?
