ok i did that - i added 2 additional nics and assignd as awo suggest - i can see now what the prob is - when i open nlb manager and connect to the cluster
only one server will converge at a given time instead of two.

In adition you can assign the two physical NICs to the VMNet's you need (default is that VMNet0 is bridged to an automaitic choosed adapter). You can go and assign NIC 1 to VMNet0 and NIC 2 to VMNet2, for example. Thereby you can be sure, that if you do WLB under the guest, two physical adapters are used.

If you have allocated two Physical Nics and ensured they are both bridged. To be honest I am unsure why you would use TS in Workstation, I would recommend ESX as a minimum

i am tring to apply 2 2003 servers as terminal servers with microsoft nlb. yet i cant figure out how to map the virtual nic to interact with the real nic.
the prob i have is users will be disconnected from the remote session for like 10 seconds than they can go back. when this will happen events
29/28/63/69 will generate from wlbs source. could it be vm related ? is there any document on nlb 2003 with vm workstation 6.01 ?
