The short answer is that it will work. CF 5.0 installs sample files and instructions for remoting un a folder called "remoting)
Follow the directions, for both the host server and the remote server (both machines must have CF 5.0 installed) in order to use the remoting feature. ===================================== Douglas White group Manager mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.samcfug.org ===================================== ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Kear" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 4:55 PM Subject: Running COldFusion server on a different box to the web server - possible? | My client has invested in a second box for his server and wants to set | it up with his web server and a whole bunch of .asp stuff on one box | (the "main" box) and the coldfusion server (CF5) and the coldfusion | components on another box (the "Old" box). | | The "Old box" has been working for a couple of years now, and is NT4SP6 | with SQL7 on it, and the "main box" will be Win2k with SQL2k on it and | will be the main point of entry to the site. | | The "main box" will hold the static pages, the content management, shop | etc, which are all in .asp and the "old box" will hold the interactive | coldFusion parts, which are to appear as though they are integrated with | the rest of the site. | | | So ... here's the thing .... can anyone confirm that ColdFusion will | work this way? With the web server on a different box? Or will it have | to use the web server on the NT that's still on the "old box"? | | Can anyone see any issues with users moving back and forth between | boxes? We're going to have to change our session management because of | this, we know that already, and all links are going to have to be | absolute links not relative links - any other issues you can see? | | | | Cheers, | Michael Kear | Windsor, NSW, Australia | AFP Webworks. | | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
