Hi,

just wondering if cold fusion can access a secured database.



thanks

newbie
 
If you're referring to CF accessing a database that requires a username and password, you just have to configure your datasource with the username and password or pass them in as parameters in the <cfquery> tag.

consider that the web server should NOT be able to access your database.

Remove web permissions from your database folder (if you havn't already) to prevent womone from simply &quot;browsing&quot; to your database and downloading it.
