If the directory is outside the webroot, you need a JRun mapping (in jrun-web.xml in your WEB-INF directory), not a CF mapping. JRun mappings are basically the same as IIS's virtual directories, just only for JRun-served resources. I'd recommend the web-server mapping though, rather than a JRun mapping. Less apt to get forgotten on new servers, and more obvious what's going on.
