I don't think FEC will work with each NIC going to a different switch. I = am far from being a networking mastermind though. =20 I am going to assume that if you went as far as to have two switches for = maximum redundancy, that you also have more than one terminal server for = maximum redunancy. Put both nics of one server on one switch and both = ports of the other on the other switch, Turn on FEC for the NICS and = turn on FEC in the switch. You will still be adequetely redundant Greg -----Original Message----- From: Dirk Blose [mailto:Dirk.Blose@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2002 10:06 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Load Balanced Nics The Switch ports and NICs are set to 100-Full Duplex. Thing is the =3D connection go to separate switches. one cable to Switch one and one = cable =3D to switch two. The networking guys wanted it that way to provide maximum = =3D redundancy. I just went into PAM and opened every app and Ok'd it to force a refresh = =3D of the app. After doing this it seems the apps are now showing up for = the =3D clients. What I don't understand is why this is happening. The server = =3D reboot every night. It seems they are not registering their apps when = the =3D boot.
