Probably not the best of times to leave, as there will probably be quite an increase in demand for CF Hosting and related issues. What would you offer as an alternative?

To bad I can't find anything about OS level Sandboxes anymore (BTW, OS level Sandboxes didn't use SiteMinder at all). Means I have to setup security twice, once using standard Windows Security for ASP and once for CF, instead of letting the OS take care of both for me. > In place of that, CF MX has a different security architecture, which appears > to be fully integrated into CF MX, rather than being bolted on like > Frankenstein's head.

Well, that should save some work. Sandbox Security appears to be Enterprise Edition only, so we will simply leave the CF hosting business because there is no way to justify such an investment :( Jochem ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
