Well in our case, we can't (or haven't figured out how to) run a development server on the local machine because the dev/production servers are where we have the filesystem/ldap security. I don't know of any way to replicate that on the local development machine. It also looks like we don't have the schema permissions to set up the appropriate datasource connection to our Oracle server on the local machine.
We don't have RDS either though. We've managed to work directly on server shares on trusted IPs and ftp for others, but even that is getting complicated now with other Dreamweaver and Contribute users on the same system. -Kevin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Liotta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 10:28 PM Subject: Re: Cracking the RDS protocol? > > RDS is great 'cause it provides real in-place editing.
