| Hi,
Web farm is performed by hardware loadbalancer balanced over 4 web servers.
But our sites are hosted on IIS on each machine where all the servers have
the code on their own harddrives.
And yes, it is just a string key, but if you recommend we can put into
certificate (I don't know how).
I hope this information is enough.
