I've had CF 9 and 8 running as separate JRun instances within a CF 9
multiserver install. I used the CF 9 connector to connect CF 8 to IIS
with no problem.

The specific extensions don't actually matter that much, as CF
installs an ISAPI wildcard extension in addition to the regular ISAPI
extension. With that wildcard extension installed, all requests will
be filtered by the CF ISAPI extension no matter what they are, and CF
will match the patterns against those defined in the deployment
descriptor. That all breaks if you enable the "check if file exists"
option in IIS, though.
