I have two Mail Servers and if one go down the other takes over.
The do not have the same IP or name in DNS.
This works fine exept in ColdFusion Administrator It's only possible to
specify one mail server.

When CFADMIN mailserver setting is set to the IP of my mailserver, everything
works fine.
When settings is set to mail.url.com I get a connection refused error.
DNS resolves properly from the CF box.

I have Apache 2.0.47 installed and I have installed CFMX7.  Both on the same

application.  The old path was /ncr-beta/login.cfm which called the login page

In order to get CF 7 and I'm assuming CF 6.1 running under Windows Server 2003
x64 Edition, you may have to do the following:
1. Open a command prompt (Start, Run, Input CMD press ENTER)
2. Go to C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts or D:\Inetpub\AdminScripts (the AdminScripts

I need to move the Coldfusion administrator directory on my server so it can
not be accessed from mysite.com/cfide/administrator/. I've tried just moving it
and it doesn't work. I've tried leaving the scripts and classes directory and
no luck there either.

I found a reference in the Knowlede Base to a program called CFCRYPT.EXE that
encrypts the source .cfm pages.  The reference is quite old and I can't find

I have a testserver setup on my local network which seems amazingly slow.
Windows 2000server SP4, IIS 5 with Coldfusion MX7 and Flash Media Server 2. A
simple .html page from the server takes about 10 seconds to open.
Any idea what it could be?

After installing CFMX 7, it automatically takes me into my adminstrator url
page (http://localhost:8500/cfide/administrator/datasorces/index.cfm). However,

Why can't I just access the page by:
