Fear of the unknown. We considered it but discarded the idea because we believe we are going to have sufficient hurdles to overcome just divorcing our CF server from the rest of our Web configuration. Once we get/if we get this proposed configuration functional, then we plan to erect a duplicated environment using 64 bit CF 9. > > > All our CMS-generated Web-page content will appear on our Primary > Web Server because that is where our CMS software resides.
