    Why would wsconfig hang?

      I went to our production server today to connect a new website to a  ColdFusion instance and wsconfig would not cooperate with me!

      Using the GUI, and clicking the 'Add' button, the interface would just  freeze.  So we went to the command prompt to do it manually, and we  could list the connectors just fine with wsconfig.  But when we entered a  wsconfig add command, it again froze with no response until the process  is killed with the task manager.

      The wsconfig was running under the localadmin account that the sysop  logged in with and should have had plenty of permissions as far as we  could ascertain.  So what could be a problem here?

      The wsconfig worked just fine all the previous thirteen times we have  used it to connect IIS web sites to our ColdFusion instances on this  system. 

      Windows 2003 running ColdFusion 9.0 if that helps anybody.
