Its possible to stick a restart script for the IIS / CSG services - in the
event of the first failure you can attempt to restart the service. If the
service fails again you can launch a script to disable NLB. 

Not completely failsafe, but a better than nothing..

Hi Erik,

The answer is yes.

As long as you realise that NLB is service unaware, and will route users to
a box even if CSG or IIS is broken, if you can't afford hardware load
balancing the end result is quite acceptable.

Hi, 

Has anyone ever load balanced 2 boxes with each both WI and CSG installed,
using Windows network load balancing?  I'm talking about the latest versions
of WI, CSG and Windows server '03. 

Thanks, 

Erik Blom
