I have a similar situation, where I have to develop multiple web sites on
the same machine. I do like the last reply and set a mapping to the
alternate root so that the relative links will resolve correctly and then I
take an additional step as follows.
1. Go to C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
When you edit the file you will see an entry for 127.0.0.1 localhost
2. Add an additional entry for 127.0.0.1:81 NewWebSiteName
3. Save file and use your Browser to access http://NewWebSiteName/ as the
address of the new site.
4. If you create a virtual map in CF administrator it should work.
5. Oh ya, don't forget to the start the new web site.

If I understand you correctly, and you're doing something like this:
<CFINCLUDE TEMPLATE="/myfile.cfm">
then it is a CF issue. The above CFINCLUDE, beginning with a slash, doesn't
mean that it will look at the document root of the virtual web server, as it
would with an IMG or A tag, but rather that it will look at the mappings in
the CF Administrator. Now, there can only be one "/" mapping in the CF
Administrator, so CF will always go to the same directory to get the file.
