I performed this same task to cross reference pdf file names in a SQL table
with the actual directory those files existed in to check for validity.
What a headache, couldn't see the directory, until I performed the following
steps suggested in the post by Aaron Johnson.

Tim,

CFDIRECTORY will work if the CF service starts with a user account that has
permission to that networked drive.  Else, no work.  To modify the user
account, go to START MENU -- SETTINGS -- CONTROL PANEL -- SERVICES -- COLD
FUSION APPLICATION SERVER -- PROPERTIES -- LOG ON  and change the account to
someaccount that has permission.

Subject: List of files in a web directory?


I am trying to set up a drop down list or a table that shows all of the
files that are located in a given web directory on another server.

In essence, I want to say, "Show me all of the .pdf files that reside at
http://fubar.com/drawings"

I am inclined to use CFDIRECTORY, but that is returning no records. I
presume that CFDIRECTORY works with directories that you can prefix with a
mapped drive letter.

Any clues?
