According to other responses I have received, CF by default does not allow
access to remote shares for security reasons (makes sense), and uses the
local system account. I setup a cfuser account and gave it appropriate NT
permissions to the folder I needed and it works. I'm only doing this until I
can port the database to the Web server and then I will change it back to
the local system account.

Subject: Re: Configuring a Datasource on a Different Server
I ran into a problem with logins when I did this. In other words, CF is
running as a certain user. That user MUST have access to the remote file.
I'd like to open a thread on what user CF should run as, cuz I'm un certain
about this issues related to it.
Thanks,
