There are several disk encryption tools out there, but going native may be the best in this case. If you are giving physical access to the laptop then nothing will work. If I have the laptop I can either retrieve or change the password for any account, including Administrator. Once the root account is cracked nothing can stop any action. If you just want to demo an app, why not give them access to a remote server running CF?

Has anyone worked with CF and the file encryption in Windows 2000? We tried to set up a user account and set the ColdFusion Services to run as the new user. I then logged in as the user and encrypted the files in Windows 2000. However, when I tried to run the application, ColdFusion was not able to get access to the files. Anyone know how this should be done? Here's our goal: We need to provide our application on a laptop for a partner to test. We would like to be able to run the application without allowing the laptop user to open any ColdFusion files to protect intellectual property. Other than through Windows 2000 encryption (which we haven't been able to get working), does anyone know of another way to accomplish this goal? thanx in advance for any help -mike ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=sts or send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the body to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists or send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the body to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
