Hi!

I've been reading for 4 days now live docs and have found that I could actually have CFMX 7.02 running on a machine and the IIS webserver on another and the DB on another one. So far so good. But when I was reading live doc:

http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/administration/cfmx_in_distributed_mode/cfmx_in_distributed_mode02.html

I got really confused on the following line, actually the 1st. one!: Install ColdFusion MX on the application server. During installation, select the built-in (stand-alone) web server option.

Ok after I select the first choice ( not the one that tells you about the multiserver or the J2EE type! ) then it asks me to configure it for the IIS or ths stand alone one, but the stand alone warns me that it should be used

quote:

for development use only


so if my servers are going to be for production is ti ok to follow this option or should I use my IIS ?

The application servers (2X) have windows 2003 standard edition, with IIS6, and the web servers (2X) have the same configuration plus two load balancers and both application servers are behind 1 firewall, both with static IPs!

Oh yes last question, where should I put the SSL Certificate at the web servers or at the application ones? and how does I
quote:

talk
to the coldfusion server, meaning how do I call, lets say from the www.mysite.com/ the index.cfm page and how the myhtmlpage.html ?

thank you!
