IIRC the default configuration for the webserver connector is to add a wildcard mapping too. You would have to check though. > This means that if httpd sees > a request for fun.htm, it serves it directly Yes if it only add mappings for certain extensions, no if it adds the wildcard mapping. > But by default, with the jrun web connector, your CF files can be > located anywhere you like, and I assume your cf instance could > be located where ever you want (/cfusion, for instance :P), and > the connector takes care of the details. It is not the connector that does that. The connector just makes sure that the request is forwarded to a certain port on a certain IP address. After that it is all in the XML configuration files. But yes, you have considerable freedom to customize those configuration files.
