CF-NT/2000-IIS security flasw ?
Hi list, I wonder if this issue is published already: KPMG has recently published for IIS on Win-NT/2000 the following: If a domain like this is hit: (Example !!) http://www.cfserveraufnt.de/nul..dbm there is a fault-message returned: Error Diagnostic Information The template specification, 'D:\wwwroot\site\nul..dbm', is illegal. Here a solution of KPMG is released Windows 2000: 1. Open the Management console 2. Click on Internet Information Services 3. Right-click on the website and select Properties 4. Select Home Directory 5. Click on Configuration 6. Select .cfm 7. Click on Edit 8. Make sure Check that file exists is checked 9. Do the same for .dbm Unfortunately RDS on CF 5 isn't working anymore after this workaround. I don't have any KPMG URL on this issue. Uwe __ Your ad could be here.

For the full info: http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1/268263 Here a solution of KPMG is released Actually, it is the MM suggested workaround, not something KPMG came up with. Unfortunately RDS on CF 5 isn't working anymore after this workaround. Preliminary reports suggest it breaks all search engine safe URL's. If you think that MM should provide a fix instead of a workaround it is probably best to tell them so using the bug report form: http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/wishform/?6213=3 Jochem __ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
RE: CF-NT/2000-IIS security flasw ?
Unfortunately RDS on CF 5 isn't working anymore after this workaround. You can fix that very easily - that's a CF 5 install bug. When you install CF 5, it creates two directories in your web root: CFIDE and Main. However, it's supposed to create Main within CFIDE. Just move Main into CFIDE, and your RDS will work again.

On 4/19/02, Rafael (Alan Bleiweiss penned: This is a seperate and more serious issue regarding PayPal and ALL third party card services - It was announced this week and reported over the wire services today that Mastercard is about to make a final decision on whether to discontinue allowing ANY third party processors to process payments of Mastercards! What is their definition of third party processor. Would that include Authorize.net and the like? I do agree it would be best to discontinue letting PayPal process any credit cards as their system is becoming abusive. They take funds from merchant bank accounts without so much as a warning, let alone any sort of dispute process.

Re: Paypal Subscriptions...
At 02:24 PM 04/20/2002 -0400, you wrote: What is their definition of third party processor. Would that include Authorize.net and the like? So far as I have been able to read into this, and this is only my take on it (mastercard isn't talking with anyone as lowly as a little web dev company), it's strictly companies that act as the payee on the card. Authorize.net and most processors simply act as the conduit. If you have a commerce site and the charges appear on the visitor's card under YOURCOMPANY, Mastercard is fine with that. If, however, The site is YOURCOMPANY, and the charges appear as PAYPAL who in turn pays YOURCOMPANY, that's where the issue lies.

RE: CF and Business Logic
Proficient \Pro*ficient\, a. Well advanced in any branch of knowledge or skill; possessed of considerable acquirements; well-skilled; versed; adept, Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, C 1996, 1998 MICRA, Inc. Heh! Seriously, though. What I mean by proficient is that I could be given an assignment and complete it to specification without assistance in a reasonable amount of time. IMHO, someone who is not proficient would require assistance of some kind. While, someone who has mastered a skill is not only proficient, but can teach the skill to others and often can further the knowledge of one's peers. Contrary to the popular phrase, jack of all trades, master of none, it is possible as a software engineer to master many different languages. I in fact have mastered many of the before mentioned skills and can be found teaching them at my local user groups or various industry conferences as well as writing technical how-to articles.

New CFUG forming in Fayetteville, NC
Evening, I have gotten approval from Macromedia to start a new ColdFusion User Group in Fayetteville, NC. Presently we have only 4 members (all of whom I work with), however I know there are more people using CF in the area, and there was some interest on the CCFUG mailing list about having meetings in Fayetteville. We are already being sponsored by Schoollink, Inc. which is by the way my employer (don't want to have any conflicts of interest). They have agreed to let us use their training lab which consists of 15 workstations, a trainers station, projector, huge white board, as well as hosting the FCFUG website, and some demo space on a training server for presentations and stuff. We are currently in the process of registering the name and building a web site. The launch of the CFUG is not official until the site is up and running, and so that is one reason I am making this announcement. We are looking for people who would be able to help with any facet of running the CFUG, from list management, to site design, meeting planning or speaking. All are welcome. I would also like to say we are not trying in any way to take from the CCFUG in Chapel Hill, it is just a bit to far for some of us to travel, but we look forward to being able to do joint meetings eventually both in person, and over the net. I will also still be making every effort to attend when possible. Plus we are going to make sure never to schedule an event on a day planned by the group at Chapel Hill. If you are interested please respond to this post off list, as I wouldn't want to anger any of the people that this doesn't pertain to. Ok well I will be signing off now. I hope to hear from you all soon. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ken Beard for making available his CFUG's site, it will give us something to put up in the interim while we build a FB 3 site. BTW in case you haven't taken a look at it, it has some really great FB 2 stuff in it that never really made sense to me until I started using his app. Ok well night all.

Re: RE: CF and Business Logic
I dunno... I've done some pretty huge commercial sites with CF and heard no complaints... In fact, I've just finished the largest of legal firms in the UK (and I mean, THE largest!)...they didn't complain - in fact, they were more than happy. It's bound in with SQL Server 2K, but running fully functional over SSL and including almost anything you can name...then some :o) I think there's some pretty big players in the CF market. If your client doesn't sound serious enough, point him in the direction of a few clients already using CF. If that doesn't persuade him, I'd put him on hold and wait until he smells the coffee... Si.

Depending on the politics of the govt person involved, you could mention that aclu.org uses CF too :) Jeff Whatcott wrote: In the US, every cabinet-level federal agency, both houses of Congress, and many sites in the Judicial branch use ColdFusion.

RE: CF and Business Logic
Try and tell that to the VB6 programmers who are having to port their applications to VB.NET. While the syntax may be the same, the languages are very different. VB is a procedural language with objects, while VB.NET is an object oriented language. That in and of itself means that the way you attack problems with the two languages is completely different. Kind of like what is going to happen when you from another procedural language (CF) to an object oriented one (CFMX). -Matt -Original Message- From: stas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, April 20, 2002 3:21 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF and Business Logic Can't the languages you list here be folded into 4-5 language families though?
