Here I am thinking that today would be a breeze... So, my new problem is
I'm trying to FTP a file to our main frame. <cfftp> doesn't quite do the
trick because I have to pass some special commands to the main frame.
I'm thinking, no problem, I'll just use <cfexecute> to execute a batch
file that does my ftp process. I first test everything on the command
line and everything works fine. I then create my cfm page calling my
batch file via <cfexecute> - it doesn't work. I've checked file paths,
names, etc. and everything looks fine. 

I then talk to a fellow programmer and they say that if the cf services
aren't running under the administrator account, you might not be able to
run .bat files. I checked the services and sure enough, all cf services
are running under the 'local system account'. I then talked to the
network admin about changing the login account and that was quickly
denied.

So, what account does everybody out there run their cf services under?
It seems to me that if you lock your servers down and know at least a
little bit about security, there shouldn't be a problem.

Any insight?

Thanks,
Mark
