Here's yet another way to do this... I've played with it a bit, but
not a lot. I got it to mostly work, except that my URLs were pointed
to the wrong directory level, so I could only access the home page.
Apparently it takes some tweaking to get the mappings all worked
out... but it allows some massive, killer, amazing flexibility in the
way you configure your system. Imagine being able to run ONE CF server
and having an IIS box, and Apache box, the native CF built-in
webserver, any any number of other tools simply using that CF box and
the specific version running on it for a rendering engine only.

Very. Cool.

It should, however, allow you to leave CF5 managing the whole site and
only pass certain sections of the site along to CFMX. The apache stuff
is free, and works REALLY REALLY WELL for managing 5, 6.1, and 7...
all running on the same hardware, or different hardware, on the same,
or different instances of Apache. I know little about the IIS stuff,
although I may putter around with it because I'm completely sold on
the idea.

Abstraction ad insanitarium...
