I'm probably being retarded and missing something obvious... but I'm a touch stuck... I even checked the help files. (I pause now for the customary gasps of amazement and wonder).
win2k/iis5.0 + all relevant sp's/hotfixes. CFMX Enterprise updater3. DWMX latest updater. Connecting via FTP with servu as the FTP server. I'm testing with the intention of advising users for this. I'm the server admin, but its a shared hosting server. All components will be in a subdirectory of the webroot. Users will not have the RDS or CFADMIN passwords, nor is it possible for them to have them. in DWMX/appliaction/components following the prompts to browse and use CFC's requires the RDS login information? Is there any way around that. Can it be arranged to use FTP auth details? or something? IE can I get around requiring the RDS login information? Having slapped in the RDS login for testing (I'm testing this as an admin, but users won't have this option) I'm then presented with CFIDE.componentutils - and cfcexplorer and utils. Can I change this to refer to another directory? Creating a new CFC allows to input a component directory... but it doesnt display under the browser. I was looking for a webservices style map my components and drag and drop methods with auto-pop object creation? Is it possible with a shared environment or just a case of no, go away? On a sepperate but simmilar note, same webserver, MSSQL 2k latest SP/hotfix packs etc, playing with DWMX I also noticed the ability to browse Databases... But when It challenges for a username and password to populate my table list it doesnt accept my login credentials. When I authenticate to the server via query analyzer or safe the password details in cfadministrator it works, but not through DWMX... Does it need to be saved via CFAdministrator? Or is it just functionality that I can't really use in the shared environment?
