smtp nlb configuration

Asked by bobs6140 in Windows 2003 Server, Microsoft IIS Web Server

Tags: multiple smtp virtual servers nlb

I have two Windows 2003 servers with SMTP installed and NLB is configured, now I want to add 4 more virtual servers and I have a couple questions.

1. Are the same virtual servers configured the same on both servers with the same ip or a different ip on both

2. do I set up a separate nat to the smtp virtual server address or will they use the NLB address

3. do i add the virtual server ip's to the cluster ip properties

4. do I setup separate port rules in the cluster properties for each virtual server or since they are all using the same port just select all.

Thanks in advance,
Bob Smith
