Thanks for the info and help thus far.

(e.g. netbios name = ) What do you have interfaces = and bind interfaces only = set to? > after heartbeat is configured you present an IP Address, and manually > register this IP Address to a DNS A record within your DNS environment. how do you have the clients configured to lookup this A record? I though this needed to be a SRV record?
