Sample code I'm using:
<cfquery name="qr" datasource="#request.ds#">
RESTORE DATABASE [#theDBName#]
FROM DISK='#request.BackupDBFolder#\#theBaseDB#.bak'
WITH
MOVE 'master_default_dat' TO
'#request.SitesDBFolder#\#theDBName#.mdf',
MOVE 'master_default_log' TO
'#request.SitesDBFolder#\#theDBName#.ldf'
</cfquery>
