We're looking for a way to programmatically timeout sections of ColdFusion
code. Specifically, we are calling a COM object from within ColdFusion. The
COM object talks ADSI to various servers. Some of the servers sit behind a
firewall which throws away the packets, causing the COM object, and the
ColdFusion thread, to hang indefinitely. We'd like to be able to timeout
that request and catch the error with CFTRY.

I think there was a discussion about this very subject not too long ago, but
for the life of me, I can't find it in the archives. In any case, perhaps
someone can tell me what the conclusion of that conversation was.
