If you're using the built-in CF web server then of course IIS won't come into play at all. This will strictly be a configuration issue on the CF side (if it's possible at all).
Not to harp on source code control, and of course everyone has their own preferred method of working, but I tend to put everything related to a project in SVN. Original design files, documentation, you name it, it goes in SVN. I guess my point is that SVN shouldn't necessarily be thought of as a file-for-file mirror of your production application, but rather should contain everything related to the application, and then when you're ready to deploy you do a build process to pull the files you need for the production app from SVN. As for backups, I guess in my mind they're such a different animal that my question would be why it's important that they're readily available to your development environment. I again (surprise!) use SVN to get back to previous versions of files or even the entire app. Remember that in SVN revision numbers are *repository wide* so it's very easy to either just use these revision numbers and say "I need the entire app at revision 42" for example. You can also tag and branch the app as needed which can make managment even easier. Complete backups of things to me would be archival so they wouldn't really need to be readily accessible, at least not the way I tend to work. To give a recent example of this, I spent some time on my laptop yesterday reworking the Mach-II sample Contact Manager application so it uses a database. The original just uses in-memory stuff to avoid having people have to worry about a database, but a lot of people have wanted to see a dead simple app that uses a database, so this seemed like a good candidate. To get this going I pointed my laptop to my SVN server at home and created a new project, and I commited the files from the laptop to this project as I went. When I got home to my desktop machine, I didn't have to do anything other than create a new project in Eclipse, point to SVN, and grab all the files. Now that I'm back on my laptop I just hit "update" and I have all the changes I made last night on my desktop machine. Of course this does require that you're connected long enough to get the files, but once you pull them down you can even work offline and commit your changes when you're back online. You don't have to be connected to SVN while you work, in other words. Just some additional thoughts. I'll let you know if I hear anything from the Adobe folks.
