One thing to note in this setup though, you cannot cluster the CF Servers then. I recently had to investigate this, and it is stated online somewhere (MM knowledgebase) that this configuration doesn't support clustering.
I have yet to see a situation where this configuration is prefferable. But maybe I'm missing some fundamental information.

Basically, you must have the ISAPI filter for CF installed on the IIS server and then use the distributed processing stuff to talk to the remote CF server. http://www.macromedia.com/v1/Handlers/index.cfm?ID=16345&Method=Full This article is actually for CF4.5.1, but the process is still the same for CF5 as it was for CF3. ;o) Have a look in the cfdist.ini and the cfremote.ini files in c:\cfusion\ as well...
