Since you have access to Active Directory, I would suggest that you put your admin people into a domain group such as "WebSiteAdmins". Then, when they log in, you can check for the group membership.
If you need any details on how to pull this off, let me know.

I don't want to have to create a whole new database of user names just for back door access to the site. I'm hoping to check what users put in as their user name and password with an LDAP query. I then want my users to be able to upload certain files, where they will be accessible to the public. I have a basic understanding of ColdFusion and know bits and pieces of what I might need, but I'm having a hard time putting it all together. One of the main reasons for this is that we are running off of a Content Management System that already uses a lot of action files and some cfcs. I don't know if I try to do something if it will mess up the system we have in place. Anyway, I could use some help! If there is anyone out there with some free time, ideas or resources I would really appreciate any help I can get.
