Add ?wsdl to the CFC URL; e.g.

http://your.server/foo.cfc?wsdl

It's raw XML, but there are a large number of parsers out there. You
only need the CFAdmin/RDS passwords to use the CFC explorer, which
displays methods that are not marked remote.

Subject: securing WSDL files

Hey All,

OK...so you need the Admin or RDS password to view a WSDL file...makes
sense...

The situation I find myself in is that remote developers will need
access to the WSDL files, but giving them the CF Admin password is not
an option....and RDS is pretty insecure...so I'd prefer to leave that
off.

So...does anybody have a bright idea for making the WSDL files
accessible to remote consumers of the web sevice without giving out the
prized CF Admin password? or any other suggestions to get around this
situation?

It seems like awaste of a self-documenting feature if you can't securely
share that documentation (i.e. without giving up full access to CF Admin
and the potential for nastiness).

TIA

Cheers
