If I remember correctly, the second install overwrote the CFMX mapping for /farcry pointing to the applications dirrectory.
This meant that the apps.cfm for the first install would no longer be found and made the first install unusable.
As has been said before, one code-base install per server.

I guess what I meant was what is they upload the farcry core files into their home directory, modify application.cfm and try to execute the install script?

In theory they wouldn't have much luck running the install - by default you have to be logged onto localhost (for memory) to even get to the install. At least that is how it *should* work.
You will see this line in the application.cfm of farcry_core/admin/install :
<cfset lAllowHosts = "127.0.0.1"> <cfif NOT listFindNoCase(lAllowHosts,cgi.remote_addr)> <cfthrow errorcode="install_invalid_host" detail="Your IP address is not permitted to access the install directory." extendedinfo="By default, installation is only permitted to the following hosts : 127.0.0.1 To give access to other hosts, then append the desired IP address to the variable lAllowHosts in /farcry_core/admin/install/application.cfm"> </cfif>
Basically in a shared environment - your users should not have access to the install at all in my opinion. I'd have thought most people would be importing data from a dev database anyway. Applying relevant directory security is an additional method to the later to ensure that no one can access the install.
The only way to retrieve passwords at present is to view the contents of the dmUser table. The passwords are (still) not encrypted in anyway so you can simply view the record - column 'userpassword'.

also, is it possible (and if so, how) to retrieve the [lost] password for FarCry admin?
Thanks. GM
