>>>Case in point I've written an article on the Windows 2000 AS Network Load Balancing service (you can find it on my articles site). There were a number of bugs and problems that cropped up and it was next to impossible to get any information on the service. THere's no support, no documentation and not even any peer support (no peers - or very few anyway)...

>No, that's component load balancing (see what I'm talking about here in terms of misconceptions). There are three kinds of load balancing services in Windows 2000: Cluster Services, Component Load Balancing and Network Load Balancing. NLB is for Web Farm type IP load balancing, which frankly makes Component Load Balancing unnecessary.
