Just a couple points of interest .. NLB requires Advanced Server, the best
practice is to have NLB run with Multiple Network interfaces, one for the
NLB address and the other answering the unique static IP address for the
server itself. The NLB address shared across X number of servers will answer
requests and primary IP address is used to respond, I have played aroound
with NLB and found that it works just fine if configured using at least 2
interface cards rather than assign additional IP address to a single NIC.

I currently have a single point of failure with just one ISA system that
is only publishing web sites, I tried Rain Wall and had great success, but
I need to compare it against something else.
1. Is NLB easy to setup for failover with ISA
2. Would it be better to use a windows 2003 server than windows 2000
server? If I try NLB.
