Hi, I'm running Windows Server 2008 standard. What data name source & driver do I  select when using Coldfusion 9 and IIS 7? I'm in the Adobe ColdFusion  Adminstrator (Data & Sources/Data Sources) trying to selct the  correct DSN for the IIS 7 server I have running. I have Coldfusion 9 and  IIS 7 server running. Thanks, Darren

    IIS 7 (or an of the previous versions) is not a DATABASE SERVER.

    It is a web server and as such none of the the Data Source Name options you are viewing apply.

    What you need to know to pick appropiate Data Source Name parameters is what Database Management System you intend to use.  I.E. MS SQL SERVER, MySQL, Oracle, etc.
