Some articles are written with good intent, but bad information.
I spend about 10% of my time getting those corrected.

-------------------------------------------------------Hi Jim,

Are you sure that holds true on a clustered Exchange 2000 server?  I
recall
from my Microsoft 2000 server clustering class at Quickstart
Intelligence
back in 2001,
http://www.quickstart.com/courses/course.asp?cat=Windows&type=88&course=
2087
that the instructor stated that both Exchange 2000 and SQL 2000
clustered
was dependent on NETBIOS. Was this changed in a later service pack? Why
would Microsoft create this article dated:Article ID : 837391
