http://www.msexchange.org -------------------------------------------------------We decided to install a secondary Exchange Front End for our email system. Currently we are serving both OWA and RPC / HTTPS. Out of curiosity, what is the method deployed the more with multiple Exchange front End... using Microsoft Network Load Balancing service, or using DNS based? Using DNS based basically is creating a CNAME record that points to multiple A records, eg: webmail.mydomain.com IN CNAME exchange-fe1.mydomain.com webmail.mydomain.com IN CNAME exchange-fe2.mydomain.com exchange-fe1.mydomain.com IN A 192.168.1.3 TTL 900 exchange-fe2.mydomain.com IN A 192.168.1.4 TTL 900 I prefer to use DNS based because this will be the easiest and "cleanest" to implement. But the question is what will happen in case in the middle of an OWA or RPC/HTTPS session the DNS entry webmail.mydomain.com change from exchange-fe1 to exchange-fe2 ? Will user need to re-authenticate again?
