Go to your server documentation and find the subject of setting up a
security server. after following those directions to the letter, the one
thing you will need to do is go into user manager for domains and choose
user rights from the policy menu. Then mark the check box for show advanced
user rights. Go to the dropdown selection for allowed to log on to this
computer from a network (forgot the exact name) and add your group that you
created. This will make the security context allow users to log into the NT
domain.
Now look in the doc's for examples of using the <cfauthenticate> tag and the
isAuthorized() and IsAuthentcated functions. That will tell you how to
secure each page in your application.
Shoot me a mail if you have any trouble.
