DotNetNuke - Change connection settings Sql Express

Being relatively new to DotNetNuke, I set up my first site pretty quickly without much thought as to architecture. As a result, I just stuck with the default database configuration which means you have an .mdf file in your App_Data folder. I prefer to have my database files all in one place and attached to the Sql Server instance running on my machine so I decided tonight to switch them over.

Configuring IIS To Server Up .cfm Extensions as .aspx Pages

Recently we needed to configure an IIS server to serve up a .cfm page as though it were a .aspx page. This was a page that was being accessed by a desktop program and the old link needed to still be good even though we did not want ColdFusion to be installed on the new server we were moving to. We first re-wrote the functionality into a new .aspx page and then replaced the original .cfm page with a simple .aspx page that included a server-side transfer to the new page.
