The users don't need to specify a port number but you do need to make sure the 
server has both register with portmapper set to true AND a specific port set.  
This way your clients can use the portmapper to find the fixed port that the 
server is using (and the load balancers are redirecting).

Subject: Re: Load Balancer setup with remedy

But our users don't want to use port number in the user tool.
So your suggestion still works without a portnumber.
I need something like this.


          remedyvip
              |
              |
              |
             / \
            /   \
           /     \
rem1:44629  rem2:44629
