Windows IIS

Server A windows 2003 server with iis 6, I would like to set up another server identical to server A that will sync reguarly and if one goes down the other server will take over. These machines are not in a domain, they are in a workgroup. They also run cold fusion.
How to approach?
thanks in advance.

Without 3rd party tools this will not likely be possible.

That's true, however these types of clusters require shared storage as in a SAN.  Pretty expensive option.

True... I actually think co-location is a much more reasonable alternative.

While this is an old article it will at least give you an idea of what to think about:
