Hi,
I would like to configure IIS to display a nice HTML page when the CF5 server
is restarting and not available to process a request. How can I configure this?
When CF is back up, things should return to normal.

thanks!

I don't think there would be an error that is specific to CF not running
that IIS could spit out. You can of course customize the IIS error page for
each type of error (404, 500, etc.), so that would be the route you'd have
to take. Just shut off CF, see which error type IIS throws, and customize
the error page for that type of error.
