I prefer to have my websites outside of the system partition on a separate hard drive. Better protection against things like Nimda and Code Red. All you really have to do is copy the root of the website (along with the directories inside) to another location. Then, just change the location under the home directory properties of the website in IIS. Other settings that you may have to change would be your ColdFusion template mappings, ODBC setting if using Access or FoxPro, etc... Jacob -----Original Message----- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 17, 2005 8:30 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Setting Up Website Outside wwwroot... Well... For about 5 years now I've been running all my websites under C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cfdocs... Is this the best practice? Worst practice? I would like to setup the physical folders on a physical drive separate from my system drive and use virtual directories in IIS...my limited experimentation has failed...my search of these archives, Microsoft's site, and the Internet at large has failed to turn up the desired information. So, anyone want to point me to an online source of information (no books, please...) about accomplishing what I'm after? Or, perhaps just some guidance on the best practice for this? Any info providing a setup will be appreciated... Rick -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
