Bryan,

Along the lines of what Dave Watts said, perhaps you could have a page
that uses CFHTTP to call the page and get the data you want it to
display and then you can handle the security for your people at that
level.  That might be better for keeping the display updated so you
don't have to remember to save it as html each time you make a change.
I know it's a work around but it sounds like that's what you were asking
for and I thought that idea might help.

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
