can it be done? and better yet, should it be done?
just thought i should ask before i get too far into attempting to set it up.
we have a few w2k webservers all at the same physical location, and i was
asked what it would take to cluster them and have them all serve up the same
set of webpages. while googling for answers i wasn't able to find much of
anything for windows, but a lot for linux.
since W2k doesn't to tunneling (as per something in the howto) and since NAT
can bottleneck the system, is it possible to setup an lvs-tun to an lvs-nat?
(or even lvs-dr to an lvs-nat)

and possibly on the same physical box? (without virtual pc software, or linux
in linux)

(and then from the lvs-nat to a set of w2k webservers)
