Flex, remote called CFC's and mappings

Is there some difference in how a CFC that is accessed remotely sees ColdFusion mappings? The following line in a simple CFM template works just as expected.  It instantiates a component and I am off and running utilizing its methods.  'common_cfc' is a ColdFusion mapping that points D:\common\cfc.  This directory is NOT under the site's web root of d:\intranet_apps\tools\general\wwwroot\. createObject("component","/common_cfc/ldap_security/ldap") When I put this line into a CFC that is utilized remotely by a Flex application I am getting this error: "Unable to invoke CFC - Could not find the ColdFusion Component or Interface /common_cfc/ldap_security/ldap."

You may need to change this line in your services-config.xml file <use-mappings>true</use-mappings> to see the mappings in CF. ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

Then try the remoting-config.xml file.  (I'm on CFMX7 and everything's in the one file there) ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----
