RDS needs to be running on the target server. You need CF Studio. In studio go to Allaire|Macromedia FTP & RDS Right click, choose add RDS server Enter a description for this RDS connection. Enter the target servers IP. Enter the CF studio password (if set in CFAS admin) Click OK
You should now have an RDS connection in studio. If you don't see it, click on the Allaire|Macromedia FTP & RDS and hit F5 This will refresh your list of RDS/FTP servers. Click the plus next to the RDS:// server that you just created. If you have the correct permissions you should see a list of drives. Select your webroot's drive and drill down to the directory you want to work in. HTH, Joseph DeVore VeloxWeb Technologies -----Original Message----- From: Tangorre, Michael T.

That's what the database tab in Studio is for. HTH, K. "Bryan Love" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It stands for Remote Development Server.
