I am very familiar with Windows 2000 Server but not ISA Server. I will have to research this to assist you. Can you describe: -Networking devices, switches, gateways. -IP addressing, range, schema, and masks used? Subnets? -Requesting clients OS type, protocals used, applications. -Are you load balancing SMB traffic for MS Client, or load balancing HTTP traffic or FTP or NFS? -Are you using NTFS 1.3 on the source volumes for each server? -Do you have another proxy installed on this network?
