So what about using NLB or MS Cluster server??? I cannot believe that an "enterprise" firewall/proxy solution would not provide any more fault tolerance than this. :-( Brian W.

Load-balancing is limited to CARP for web requests. If you're looking to make an ISA array truly fault-tolerant, you need to look into either a software add-on like StoneSoft or some of the hardware load-balancing solutions offered by Cisco, 3Com, Foundry, etc. Jim Harrison MCP(NT4, W2K), A+, Network+, PCG http://isaserver.org/authors/harrison/ <http://isaserver.org/authors/harrison/> Read the books! ----- Original Message ----- From: Rogers, <mailto:RogersB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Brian To: [ISAserver.org <mailto:isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Discussion List] Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 8:46 AM Subject: [isalist] Re: Moving standalone ISA server into an array? http://www.ISAserver.org <http://www.ISAserver.org> Its already runnin Enterprise Edition...
