This response was originally part of a discussion on accessing files using cffile, and the need to run cfserver under a user account as opposed to the system account. I'm concerned with the ramifications of running cfserver as a user account as opposed to the system account. Are there security issues that don't exist when it's run under the system account ? We've got a pretty heavily used existing live box that has been running cfserver under the system account. I'm concerned about A:breaking existing applications and B:creating security holes that didn't exist before. Any advice would be appreciated. Brian L.
