Good point John. In fact, always disable other verbs (TRACE, PUT, OPTIONS, etc) since they can open you up to security vulnerabilities. Of course, you'll need PUT, etc, if you're using WebDAV...

Just another note on this, when you map them make sure to just allow the following http verbs (methods) GET,HEAD,POST. The default has you turn all the methods on and that isn't needed.

Using your instructions, I see that .cfm, .cfml, and .da (our proprietary extension using ColdFusion) extensions are mapped.

Ok, here we go:

Assuming you have IIS installed and CF installed and you have access to your IIS Administrator:

Use the "+" symbols to expand to your default web site
Right click the default web site and then click "Properties"
Click "Home Directory" tab
Click "Configuration" button
Under the scrollable list of "Application Mappings," you should see .cfm under teh extensions column

If you do not see .cfm, then your IIS server will not be able to serve up the page

Yes as I have been able to access the administrator in the past. This is recent problem and, because others have access to the server, I do not know what, if any changes have been made.

When you install CF in server mode, you will be prompted on which web server to use and then the bindings for the CFM interpreter are created at that point.

Do you know for a fact that CF is indeed installed?

In response to Teddy, that is exactly right. As far as why both are
installed, I just work here. It was that way from day one when I
started.

You are asking for trouble running apache and IIS... why do you need
both on the same box?
