That happened to me too Simon.  I feel your pain.  I finally gave up after
the second time I lost work.  But that's the way it goes when you use beta.
I was really anxious to give it a whirl because of all the things they've
improved (like the new FTP engine) but it looks like they have to do some
more work before this one's going to be ready to go.

Anyone wishing to try it, or see success or bug reports can go to
beta.allaire.com and look at the release notes and the forum discussions.

I depend on RDS to work from home and I really hope that Allaire gets some
of the kinks worked out.  Its already amazing that they have something like
this at all. And although, even previous versions of CF Studio RDS has some
foibles, it does work for the most part. I'd be grateful if they could get
this together.

I recently had studio (4.5.2 beta 2) completely erase all the contents of a
file.... the result of 3 days of work.  No fun losing 3 days like that, but
what can you do.  If you're using a beta product and are concerned about the
potential for these sort of occasional mishaps, stop using a beta version.
I know some people who rolled their studios back to 4.0.1, because it was a
very stable version compared to recent builds.  Anyway, I figure studio's
features have still saved me more time than they've cost me, all in all.

Hi Jeff,
I have that same problem and in fact have reported it to Allaire. They
were unable to come up with a solution and after a few weeks
put the call into a "bug report".
I have not heard anything from them since.
I do not have IE running at as as we are not an IE shop.

Sorry that I can't offer any bright rays of hope for a solution.
I am currently using Samba to map a drive to my Unix server since
FTP&RDS doesn't work.
