Good day all

I have been asked to investigate load balancing in IIS 6

We currently have a couple of servers that distribute an IIS delivered app.
We have a cisco load balncer splitting the load. The problem is, the Cisco
load balances according to session. Thus one entire branch of ours is seen as
a single connection. This effectively brings the server to its knees.

I am looking at load balancing the IIS6 service between the servers.

Can anyone point to some resources describing this, or documentation on how
to implement this.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Cheers,
