RE: Q) apache + W2008R2 + NLB

Hi Yehuda,

Apache works fine with Microsoft NLB.  You can set the Listen directive to the NLB IP address and you should have no problem binding to that interface.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mpm_common.html#listen

Good luck.

Hi

I am in the situation where I am looking at replacing a rhel LVS + apache load balanced reverse proxy with Windows, I have started to look at IIS7.  But I am thinking I would rather use apache.

Has anyone on the list used apache on W 2008 R2 and have the used it with the Microsoft NLB. Does it work ?

Apache works very well on Server 2008 R2 (I have several servers using it).
I suggest you get the pre-compiled version from Apache Lounge (or 64-bit) instead of from apache.org.
Installing it in a path with no spaces on the C: drive (I use C:\Webserv) will make sure you do not run into trouble later because of those issues.
I have never had the need for NLB, but there should be no reason it would not work (Source).
