What is the fastest way to change data passwords for an entire server farm in coldfusion?

Question

This question says it all: I want to change information about data sources on multiple coldfusion servers. Could this be written? Ideally, the solution will work on both CFMX 6.1 and CF8

Answer 1

Can you use cfc API for version 8

From 6.1 I think you're out of luck. It stores the password in an XML file, somewhere, I suppose, you will need to read it, change it and save it. This will work for both versions.
