Author Problems with Frontpage and Clustered Files Share

Hi Guys, Hope Someone can help

I have a 3 node cluster running Win2003 Datacentre, each is running IIS6.0
and has frontpage 2002 installed on it. Each server connects to an iSCSI
array, these disks have been clustered and are presented as a file share to
the servers. I have edited the registry so that Frontpage will allow the
extension of webs over the unc and denied all machine groups.

When I use owsadm to extend the webs, there are no errors on any of the
nodes. I can tell the extensions are fine as the hit counters work on the
pages.

However, when I go to edit the site using Frontpage from my desktop, I get
an error of cannot access Frontpage.lck, check your permissions.

If I test agaisnt each of the nodes, I find that I can access the site via
frontpage only on the server which is currently controlling the cluster.

In the Cluster Shared Disk Resource, I have enabled Kerberos auth as stated
in KB: 324320

In the registry under
HKLM\software\microsoft\shared tools\web server extensions\ports\port
/LM/W3SVC/1:
it creates a string value called
"uncrootpath"
and gives it a value of
"H:\Inetpub\path\to\site"

The H: drive is the clustered disk resource that is used for the clustered
file share

I want to be able to edit the sites via any of the nodes, not just the one
that controls the cluster

Much appreciated
