Our ColdFusion servers are clustered and are only severing cfm files and
static WebPages. The data base servers are on separate servers that are
mirrored.The cfm, html, and other files are on a file server and do not need
to be loaded in more then 1 place. We use NT authentication and allow users
to map to their directories only to upload or replace files. A way around
the CF session variables is to create a Global cfm file with the Session
variables stored in a data base and use the CFinclude statement at the top
of your program to pull it in.
