Interact with client file system
To clairfy, The data or file is processed by a custom 3rd party driver for a output device slaved to the client PC. I talked to the dirver developer and he wants a file that he can process with his VB program without getting into http gets (I think the best way to go would be to cffile the data on the server and have his driver fetch it via http but I am looking for ideas). This would fall on the Intranet side of things but I want to keep it as simple and client proof as possible. Mike __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

odd cfhttp behavior
Greetings list, I had a working call to cfhttp w/ resolveurl set to true. The target is a data/graphing collector in our intranet. The CF template grabbed the page and I redisplayed it with the images (which live in the same web dir) without a problem. Now for some reason the image links are broken, but the rest of the page is fine. When I check the html source on the browser, I see that the image links are not resolved correctly. The common problem is that the fetched page is inserted into the path of the image. For example, if the fetched page is http://myserver/mypage.html; and the image lives directly under the root, the resolved link to the image becomes http://myserver:80/mypage.html/myimage.jpg; when is should be http://myserver:80/myimage.jpg;. If I point my browser directly at the targeted page, it looks fine. I am running CF 5.0 pro on Win2k / IIS 5.0. The target is RH 6.1 / Apache 1.3.6. I am not sure when the application broke as it was reported by a user and the last time I checked it was a year ago when the CF server was 4.5 pro on NT 4.5 and IIS 4.0 The code snippet looks like this: cfhttp url=http://myserver/mypage.html; method=GET resolveurl=true timeout=10 throwonerror=yes I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this.

Hi all, Sorry for this slightly off topic post - I have exceedingly stupid (and cheap) clients and need to know if this is possible. This client has created a huge site himself, incorporating gallery pages with hundreds of images, both thumnails and high quality versions. Considering everything, he hasn't done too bad a job - it looks fairly good. Except the image files are named in a variety of ways - uppercase, lowercase and mixed case - and the links to the images do not necessarily match up with the image filenames with regard to case. This is going to be deployed on a linux box, so that is obviously not going to work. Rather than cross-check each filename with the links, I am going to use a utility to rename all the image files with all lower case. That's no problem. What I am not sure about how to do is this: I want to use extended find and replace in Studio to convert everything to lower case that is inside a tag. Is this even possible? Not being a regex guru, I'm hoping it is, because manually editing links in about 500 files does not sound like my idea of a fun Wednesday afternoon, and something I'm sure the client does not want to pay for.

RE: Blocking IPs
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Juan, You could block an intruder at your web server with the facilities of the httpd software, the server's tcp/ip features, you can also do it from CF (but you would have to wait for the intruder to request a Cf template... maybe you don't want to wait that long!). There are a lot of inetd sorts of security that depend on the platform you are using. The best (fastest, most robust and a goodie that is designed for it) would be at your firewall/router. You will shortly find that you need to see your site in the context of a greater security policy. Balance that with why you have a web site and what you keep there }:/. Formulate a real security policy and put it to work. Is your abuser always from the same IP address? Then report it to the upstream ISP and help protect the field. OTOH, a dial up account is easy to setup and abusive nut cases are very fond of them as it costs them nothing. Do you want to catch this black hat in the act? Put up a honey pot and attract all kinds of critters. But really, think about what you do with your server and get a working policy, firewall, router, etc. Get some books, investigate a DMZ, encryption etc. Visit CERT, Security Focus, l0pth and others.

Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2000 09:55:54 -0700 No, I do not want email sent at a certain time or upon a user action. I want a Cold Fusion template to be executed when I send email to an email address. It can be an email account on the same server if that helps (you'd think so). I know I can do it by using a scheduled task to check for new email at specified intervals, but scheduled tasks are frequently unreliable and either I'd have to have very short intervals of checking or I'd have to be content with waiting (and hoping) for the scheduled task to run. So intstead I would like to be able to trigger a CF template some other way, using email. Maybe there's a CFX out there for this purpose, or some obscure CF function that I haven't heard of using this way?

query exchange 5.5 ldap
Greetings, I am trying to query my ldap server on exchange 5.5. I can't seem to identify the attribute / values that exchange wants to see. I am sure that the basic setup is ok as I can query the public ldap servers, but exchange seems to have different attribute names (?) and I can't seem to find any additional info on just how the query should be formulated. Here is an example of my query: cfldap server="172.16.0.105" action="query" name="test" start="ou=*" !--- I also tried "cityhall", the name of our --- !--- exchange organization. --- attributes="cn" filter="cn=m*" !--- with or without filters, same result --- cfoutput query="test" . What comes up is this error: "No such object..." Has anyone done this with exchange?

MySql ODBC Driver
All, I am testing MySql (shareware-3.22.30) and MyODBC (2.50.31) on a win-95 development workstation with CF studio 4.5 and the single user enterprise server along with apache's win32 (1.3.12) http server. Q1. Has anyone had experience with "manually" installing the CF server since it doesn't detect the Apache server in this configuration (i.e. not a service per se on a win 95 machine). I have it mostly working by coping the cfdocs and cfide stuff to my ../htdocs/ directory. What won't work is any file system "Browse" function (like in the ODBC/DSN config page where you might press the "browse" button to find the database for the DSN). If I hit the browse button it tries indefinitely, but dose not return (I can however press "cancel" and regain control). I can't help but think it is related to my "manual" installation procedure being deficient somehow. Q2. Has anyone had experience with installing ODBC drivers? I installed the MyODBC drivers and tested fine. You can see it from the win95 control panel and such. However in the CF administrator page it is not displayed as an option in the drop down selection box. I looked in the registry to see if it got set up in there and that looks fine (and tests fine within the driver test program). Again I think it could be related to my manual install attempt. Is there any documentation out there on this?
