You can only have one root mapping (/) in the CF Administrator. However, you
have other options. You can use relative paths instead of absolute paths for
your CFINCLUDE and CFMODULE tags, and that isn't really much of a hassle.
Alternatively, you can create a mapping for each application. Finally, you
could arrange your directory structure so that you map the root to a parent
directory, and place each virtual server in a subdirectory of that parent.
For example, you might have a directory structure like this:

c:\inetpub\svr1root
c:\inetpub\svr2root

You could map the root slash to c:\inetpub\, then in your CFINCLUDE and
CFMODULE tags, you could specify a TEMPLATE attribute with a slash and the
name of the virtual server's directory.
