What is the issue with the farcry_core and fourq directories being in the webroot?

You don't want to expose any of your core files in case some enterprising person gets a copy of the open source and discovers an exploit that they can use to deface your site.

You should be able to secure these directories by IP or deny all or whatever from the webserver. ColdFusion won't look to the webserver for authentication when its accessing the components in these libraries.


Your biggest issue is making the home directory of your website: ../farcry_project/www

You really can't get around the need for this and I'm not sure what objection any ISP would make to setting your web-site doc root to anything in you like within your shared directory branch.

The biggest problem in shared hosting environments typically is requesting something like the /farcry/ ColdFusion mapping.
