OK. In general, you shouldn't need to have two different enterprise
applications within the same JRun server instance. Each one can be deployed
within its own server. The CF EAR can handle JSP and servlet requests if you
want to run a Java web app within the same server instance.

When you installed CFMX, how exactly did you do it? Did you install it onto
an existing JRun server? If your existing JRun server was already configured
to work with IIS, it won't automatically handle CF requests - there's a
little check box within the web server configuration tool that you'd need to
check when you define the connection.
