Just to be the devils advocate for moment, as an alternative scenario... You're looking at spending 5.4 million on a deep sea drilling rig to go prospecting for oil. The comapny your purchasing the rig from takes you out and shows you around and says 'so this is the rig, you'll need a team of experts to opperate it, an appropriate drilling environment and legal access to use it, and of coure you'll need an oil well under ground to get it working. You hit some buttons and pull some levers and it doesnt work. How much do you expect to pay for the contractors to sort it out so oil actually goes into the barells?
I don't really see CFSERVER as being in the same scope is a camera - its not a case of point and click and it does something wonderful. Server Technology requires some technical knowledge to opperate. Thats just how it goes. Admittedly CF is pretty dumb typically to get running. I've run up 3? 4? CFMX shared boxes on win2k/iis5 without any major problems. I've found upgrading to be the most reliable path from CF5, but no major stress associated. Certainly not compared to trying to get tomcats secured for a shared server. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Kear" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CFAussie Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2003 3:17 PM Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Macromedia support for partners - is this really the policy? > Well Scott, I'm all for separating out the tyre kickers, but lets look > at this in some more detail: > --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MX Downunder AsiaPac DevCon - http://mxdu.com/
