Here's the basic run down.
Create a new account called 'coldfusion'
Go into Local Security Policy -> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment
Add the 'coldfusion' account to..
- Deny log on locally
- Deny log on through Terminal Services
- Log on as a service
Next go to regedt32
GIve the 'coldfusion' account permissions to modify to following (if
you have ODBC datasources only)
HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/ODBC
Now go into File Explorer
Give Modify permissions to the following directories
.../CFIDE
.../ColdFusion8 or .../JRUN4 (also if you are using a different JVM,
the account there's permissions there as well)
Then any directories that contain the cfml sites and code
Next go into Services
Change into the CF service properties and click the 'Log On' tab
Switch the user from 'Local System' to the 'coldfusion' account and
enter the password
Click apply and then restart services - it shoudl properly restart
under the new account

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] Minimum required permissions
Hoping that maybe Dave Watts is paying attention to the list today...
I've been looking for a list of directories and permissions necessary for
using a domain account to run CF on Windows (as opposed to Local System),
and having little luck. There is an article about CF on IIS on the Adobe
site, but it is for CF7 and is incomplete. Dave did a presentation on a
similar topic an referred to an article on defusion that looked like it
should have the info, but defusion is dead. Haven't been able to dig up
anything else useful on Google.
Does anyone have a list like that? I can kind of guess and test my way
through it, but a list would save a ton of time.
Thanks
