Thank you for the list of good guides on NLB, i think i will reccomend your suggestion to purchase 2 x Standard edition servers with 4gb RAM rather than Enterprise.<br />
Thanks again

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I Have a customer who has the following setup<br />
<br />
Small Business Server 2003 Standard SP2<br />
Server 2003 Standard - 100% Terminal Server<br />
30 Terminal Server users<br />
<br />
The existing terminal server is low on resources and we are interested in introducing an additional server to the network.<br />
The customer has a budget of around 3,000GBP and i am confident i can find the correct hardware for the budget running Server 2003 Enterprise.<br />
<br />
1. Can you join a Server 2003 Enterprise machine to an existing SBS 2003 domain?<br />
2. Will Windows Network Load Balance work correctly between a Server 2003 Standard and a Server 2003 Enterprise terminal services setup?<br />
3. Does anyone know of a simple, easy to follow step byb step guide on how to setup WNLB in this way?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Server 2003 Enterprise With Small Business Server 2003

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
