My point exactly. The file has never been in web root until the tech at
the hosting company placed it there a few days ago. The sole content of it
seems to turn detailed error messages.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" />
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
Since it is a shared environment my assumption was that I would never
access to to CFIDE from the site.
It seems like a huge security hole to me to have any kind of configuration
file be world accessible, but I'll take your word for it.
