What we typically do is define an admin list...

<CFSET admins = "thisuser,thatuser,otheruser">

Then check if AUTH_USER is in the list using list find.

<CFIF ListFindNoCase(admins, CGI.AUTH_USER)>
Show admin stuff, links to protected documents...
<CFELSE>
No admin stuff
</CFIF>

CF has no native interface to the NT Groups that I know of at the
application level without using Advanced Security.
