I guess that is somewhat caused by Railo being more community driven and less corporate. In a community what is 'best' requires broad consensus before it is codified and 'carried' by the community members, and that broad consensus simply isn't there in the Railo community. Some of the more vocal members couldn't care less whether it works on Windows at all, some prefer the installer from Railo because it is just one click, some want to run on specific Linux flavours, some have their own idea on managing configurations etc. > I will be hosting only my own websites, about 210 so far, broken down into > four CF applications, ie; there are 185 sites running one application; 10 > running another, etc. I also have about a dozen static HTML sites, so I'll > need IIS on the box. > It is a long time ago I worked with IIS and if you are already set on that I have no advice for you, but why so many sites?

Check the documentation for the cfadmin tag.
