Emile, the sandbox features are for protecting what files/dirs a CFML app can access. It's intended to be used on a server where different developers of different apps (on the same box) should not be able to access each other's files, or files outside their purview. BTW, it's called Sandbox Security in Enterprise, but it's called Resource Security on CF Standard. I've done a pair of articles on the topic in the Adobe DevCenter (from the CFMX timeframe, but it's still applicable):

I suppose this should go into a separate thread.
