On each of 3 servers I run ColdFusion. I've got a ColdFusion Administrator
site in IIS set up, so that I can pull up the ColdFusion Administrator page on
the localhost. It also pulls up via URL from each box, for instance you can
pull it up in a browser at
http://webserver.domainname.com/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm. What's the
easiest, most secure way to remove access to all but the localhost, so you have
to be logged on to the server itself to access it? It's PW-protected, but I'd
still like to make in inaccessible outside of the server itself.

Thank you,
Elbarak

Use the Directory Security options in IIS. Go to IP Address and Domain Name
Restritions and Deny all computers access except for the ip address of the
server or any other machine that you want to access the site.
