Thanks for this.

I am looking to use this "Advanced Configuration" as the devleopment
environment, so that I can mirror the production environment. So, when I am
moving my existing projects to the "Advanced Configuration", is it correct
for me to think that (1) replacing the database mapping (after I go through
the installation process for the project) and (2) copy the contents of the
exosting site into the Project directory (just for clarity, one of
subdirectory will be the www directory from the "sub-directory"
configuration), will work?

It occurred to me that I could just copy the site created using the
"sub-directory" configuration into the Project folder of the "Advanced
configuration", and FC would just detect it on a CF server restart (after I
configured IIS7 to point to it). If I then went to view the site, would
Farcry more or less automatically detect and configure the site (subject to
the changes to the FarCryConstructor) so that I could login to the Webtop
for the site?
