CF will have to run under an account other than system. I don't know CF, but
you may be able to impersonate a user to gain network access, or you may be
able to shell something using runas.
Alternatively, see
<http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q124/1/84.asp> about null
session shares (I wouldn't recommend it though).

I don't understand your suggestion, Patrick. The users.lst files have the
following NTFS permissions: Administrators - FC, Server Operators - Change,
System - FC. If I try to add permissions to the files, the option to add the
system account from Server1 (Cold Fusion server) is not there. Both servers
are part of the same domain.

try granting ntfs permissions on the objects in question to the account if
it's a domain account. what? it's not a domain account? friend, they're
*all* domain accounts, in a workgroup configuration, each individual box is a
'domain' and has it's own user accounts. when you examine the nt4.0 server
from a win2k machine, be careful when examining ntfs rights... win2k
examines and applies permissions differently.

Subject: [IMail Forum] IMail and CF Help
One of my programmers is trying to write a Cold Fusion program to assist in
maintaining email list addresses. This program will enable users to maintain
the addresses for their own lists by displaying and permitting the
modification of the users.lst file. The problem we're having is that CF
doesn't have rights to the users.lst files on Server2 where IMail is
installed. CF is installed on Server1. The CF service is running under the
system account. Both servers are NT 4.0.
Is there a way that I can setup the NT servers so that the CF service on
Server1 has read/write access to certain files on Server2 without changing the
account under which the CF service operates??
If I have to change the CF service account, what pitfalls should I be aware
of??
Thanks.
