     I don't know what 'flavor' unix we are moving to.  Nobody asked me
my
     opinion.  Ohh, well.

     Pretty much, these are all Cold Fusion database applications.  I
     really don't know what other information that I can give.  It is
all
     pretty much generic info.

     I did forget about the application.cfm filecase problem.  Thanks
for
     reminding me about it.

     Chris

What flavor of Unix are you moving to? If you're moving to a linux
sever, Cold Fusions application.cfm will have to be renamed
Application.cfm - note the uppercase A. No one really knows why, but
you're application file won't be read otherwise..

Yes, slashes are different on Unix. You'll be going from the 'windows
slash' \ to the 'regular slash' / which is just a ton easier. Ya,
filename case sensitivity.

A bit more information on exaclty whbat you're moving over might be
helpful :)
