Dean, I'll need to email you off list after the meeting. I naturally don't
like sharing that stuff in the open for everyone to see. 
 
For everyone out there - needless to say, don't just depend on the CF level
of security. Security should always include multiple layers. Otherwise it
won't hold up very well.

Sandbox security is fine when it is backed up by OS-level security. 

What hack do you refer to? That's a new one on me.

I'm testing CF8 for this issue. Bluedragon doesn't have this issue by the
way. For a lot of things sandboxing is certainly good if people would just
use it ;)

But if you have COM objects on and CF is running under the local service
account. Which a lot of people do for some reason. You can pretty much do
anything you want to a server. Taking CF off local service account achieves
a lot of known security issues out right and it's easy to implement. That's
why I jump on that whenever possible.

No value in the resource/sandbox security? :-)

Thank you John and Dean for your feedback. The CF script needs to write the
contents of a web form to a folder on another server so that an application
on that server can read in the form results.
