Could someone run me throu just wtf all the values in the "Add Server"
dialog mean ... I have never been able to figure out how to set up
RDS and it's really getting on my nerves...

I have a standalone CF install of 8.01 on a server called "sagan". CF
is running through IIS on port 82

port 83 and 483 are my virtual root for my CF App which will only
respond on 483 to the name DEV. I have virtual sub folders that tie
me in to CFIDE from there.

so, https://dev:483 will give the loin page for my app.

I gave RDS a "single password only" and I have all necessary knowledge
of every un/pw that I might ever need.

Anyone wanna help me learn this RDS config process?

Are you using IIS or apache? The first thing I'd wonder about is why
your server is responding only to DEV. My guess would be you've got a
host header in an IIS configuration that's requiring it.

As to RDS, it's really as simple as enter the password and it works.
In Dreamweaver accessing stuff via RDS I think it looks by default at
port 80, so you probably have to specify the port in the config for
that, though I've not done it in awhile there so I'm not 100%.

Why RDS? Generally it's considered insecure anyway for a production
machine as it's one password to get info on all your datasources.

Best of luck,
Nick

thx, nick... It's not a prod box, it's dev behind a firewall.

I have already easily configured the CF server side of RDS... it's the
client side of the setup on Bolt thats giving me issues.. I cannot
figure out what paths and all I need to use to get it working.

Are there any tutorials for DreamWeaver or Bolt out there that explain
how all the values for the setup are derived?

thx,

D.

Less of a problem than more info about the env I'm in.
