I think I'm 99% of the way to getting it all setup. I got the admin API: http://russ.michaels.me.uk/index.cfm/2007/9/29/ColdFusion-Administrator-API- Web-Service and have it configured in Helm. i also set my IPs in the config.cfm and test that the AdminAPIWrapper.cfm can be accessed (ran it from a browser to check the path). However, when I try to add a CF DSN I get Unable to save DSN. Your IP (127.0.0.1) is not allowed! The Helm 3 errors logs show: 2009-07-21 13:03:08 ColdFusionDSN.AddCFDSN 000000000002: Unable to save DSN. Your IP (127.0.0.1) is not allowed!{0} 2009-07-21 13:03:08 Website.IWeb_Execute 000000000002: Unable to save DSN. Your IP (127.0.0.1) is not allowed!{0} 2009-07-21 13:03:08 cCFDSN.AddEx 000000000002: Unable to save DSN. Your IP (127.0.0.1) is not allowed!{0} 2009-07-21 13:03:08 HELM:CCFDSN::Add 000000000002: Unable to save DSN. Your IP (127.0.0.1) is not allowed!{0} I found a posting about adding the IPs to an ip.cfm file, but I can't see this file anywhere in the CFIDE path. (I even tried creating one and that didn't help.) http://forums.webhostautomation.com/pda/index.php/t-22591.html I can't see anywhere in the CFadmin to add IPs other than the debug and sandbox configs. Any ideas where I'm going wrong please? Also, if you have any further info on how you config'd the sandbox, it would be much appreciated.

We use HELM and CF8 nowdays but we were using HELM and CF7 not so long ago. We have some tags disabled by default, but they can be enabled on request. When we are requested, we set up a sandbox for the user requesting it There are only a couple of functions we will never enable for anyone, and a few mappings that arent available for anyone (e.g. "coldspring" and "Modelglue") but once the clients have their own sandbox, they have a set up very close to their own server (at least in terms of functionality anyway). First read the HELM documentation for how to set it all up. Make sure you have the latest patches for the HELM control panel. The first few months of our using HELM to create coldfusion datasources were error prone - we had to run a function on the database created to fix a cursor error. There was a bug in the HELM-Coldfusion interaction but its fixed now. Broadly, though, the HELM control panel is splendid. There are very few things users want to set up for their sites that arent handled by HELM. I think back 5 or 6 years to the control panel we were using then, and the switch to HELM eliminated nearly all of our support calls, because clients could set up almost anything they wanted themselves, any time they liked.
