I've pained over this and finally decided that the only feasible way to do it 
was to provide a "CMS appliance" to the customers who wanted to host their own 
websites/intranets using my CMS. This is essentially a locked down server that 
only I have access to (for updates etc.).

I also spent quite a while trying to re-use the .class files that CF generates. 
Proved a tad too tricky so I ditched that idea. 

Blue Dragon - When I was looking at it, yes it was very good and offered this 
type of functionality but I have a LOT of code in the CMS and Blue Dragon 
didn't work out of the box. As I'm genetically lazy I couldn't stomach 
re-writing a tonne of code - so stuck in my comfort zone ;) 

Just my 2� worth

Thanks to everyone who replied.

I had forgotten about BlueDragon's ISV program. And I guess it's 
unknown whether the Blackstone functionality referred to would 
actually allow the sort of "disabling" we'd like. From comments I've 
seen here before, Coral gets mixed reviews.
