Yeah that's right the file should be under C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc on
XP. My basic understanding of the problem is that you have reached a point
in the install or connector process at which the install/bat file attempts
to locate JRUN on some weird port on localhost. Either JRUN ain't running or
it isn't able to listen on that host/port.

The message:

-------------------------------------
Could not connect to any JRun/ColdFusion servers on host localhost.
Possible causes:
o Server not running
  -Start Macromedia JRun4 or ColdFusion MX server o Server running
  -JNDI listen port in jndi.properties blocked by TCP/IP filtering or
firewall
   on server
  -host restriction in security.properties blocking communication with
server
--------------------------------------

...is actually exactly right, the problem is it doesn't tell you how to fix
the problem, unfortunately neither can I.

Things to looks for:

- Localhost is actually being pointed at some other computer or not being
resolved at all (my hosts file says "127.0.0.1 localhost").
- JRUN isn't running.
- Some firewall, virus protection or similar software is blocking network
traffic on your machine.
