12 Chapter 1: Administering ColdFusion MX
If your ColdFusion MX Administrator is on a remote computer, use the Domain Name Services
(DNS) name or Internet Protocol (IP) address of the remote host.
To access the ColdFusion MX Administrator, enter the password specified when you installed
ColdFusion MX.
Tip: If you are running in a multihomed environment and have problems displaying the
ColdFusion MX Administrator, see Chapter 4, “Web Server Management,” on page 65 for
configuration information.
For more information, see Chapter 2, “Using the ColdFusion MX Administrator,” on page 13.
About web server administration
ColdFusion MX applications require a web server to process ColdFusion Markup Language
(CFML) pages. The server and multiserver configurations provide a built-in web server along
with support for external web servers, such as Apache, IIS, and Sun ONE Web Server (formerly
known as iPlanet).
For more information, see Chapter 4, “Web Server Management,” on page 65.
About Verity administration
ColdFusion MX includes Verity K2 Server search technology. Verity K2 Server is a high-
performance search engine designed to process searches quickly in a high-performance,
distributed system.
For more information, see Chapter 8, “Introducing Verity and Verity Tools,” on page 105.
