That's because you are doing it from the RDC, due to security reasons you are in a session that is allowed this. But if you were to physically go to the machine / server you would not be able to see your machine this way.
Now this is where I could be wrong, because my understanding is that if this was allowed that means any other session, or the server could potentially open up more security implications. And as ColdFusion is running well before your RDC session starts, then there will be no way ColdFusion or any other system outside of your RDC session can access your drives. So the next question, is why would you want ColdFusion to be able to access your drive over an RDC session? -- Regards, Andrew Scott WebSite: http://www.andyscott.id.au/ Google+: http://plus.google.com/108193156965451149543 On Tue, Jan 31, 2012 at 2:59 AM, Brook Davies <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Andrew, > > Essentially, yes.
