I'm
running from my house. And, yes, I am running through an SBCGlobal DSL
router / firewall connection.
I'm
not certain if I am running the developer edition or not. I think it's the
full package, but I may be mistaken. It's been a while since I installed
it. However, all the development I have been doing is running straight
form http://localhost with no port
number. Even if it's the developer edition, a two-user limit should be
fine.
I am
running this set up through Windows 2000 server.
How do
I set up the forwarding for port 80? How do I determine what my public IP
address is?

Are you going to be running this from your house or from an office?
Main thing there is to make sure it's routable to the outside world. If
you're running it from your house and have a typical cable/dsl firewall
router, you can get in there and set up port forwarding for port 80 so when
someone hits your cable/dsl public IP address, they get sent to the right
machine. If you're running it from your office you'll want to get in
touch with your network team to see what they suggest and get assistance
setting it up.
As for the machine itself, if it's running fine from http://localhost/ with *no port number* for CF
stuff, then you're all set. However, if you're running the developer
edition of CF it's limited to 2 outside connections, so be aware of
that.
Lastly, if you're running Windows XP Pro be aware that it has a
connection limit of 10 users, so if you're going to have more than 10 people
hitting the box at once, it's going to reject whoever gets there after number
10.

I am currently running a development

would like to provide remote access to this server to other members
of my organization for testing purposes. However, I have never
set up a server for somewhat public use.
Is there anyone out there who would be
willing to provide me with offline, telephone support on how to set this up
or can provide me with some kind of direction on where to get information to
set this up on my own? I don't want to be a burden to anyone, but I am
at a total loss when it comes to this sort of stuff since I have never done
it before.
