Cool.
We design, and host websites, and have found that ColdFusion is fast,
and rapidly developable. As of ColdFusion 4.0, it seriously appears they
are starting to look at the ISP market. I was on a mission to find a
replacement for CF, til 4.0. They added a number of security things at that
point, including sandboxes.
It still has some to go, though it is on it's way.
They now have linuxstub, which allows Apache running on a Linux machine,
to connect and execute coldfusion templates on a Solaris, or NT machine
running Cold Fusion Application Server.
They are also porting to linux now.
I tried the linuxstub module under linux emulation, however, the
linux_lib .so's aren't all the correct versions. It can be built on a
FreeBSD machine, too, though, with the same results.
