RE: CFServer passwords
Does anyone know where the CF administrator password is stored in the registry? - my mate has installed the server and rapidly forgotton what it is Rather than finding out what the existing password is, you can simply disable the use of the password, then reset it to whatever you like. If you're running CF 5 or earlier, edit the registry, and set this value to 0: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server\UseAdminPassword If you're running on Linux/Solaris/HPUX, you'll need to stop the server before making the edit, then restart it after you've edited the registry. On Unices, there's no actual registry, so this info is stored in the file cf.registry (typically /opt/coldfusion/registry/cf.registry). If you're running CFMX, you'll want to stop the service, edit neo-security.xml, find var name='admin.security.enabled'boolean value='true'//var and set the value to false, then restart the service.
