hosting customise application. to spread the work load of the 6 servers.. we

found this Article in MS http://support.microsoft.com/kb/280805

it suggested to use the following 2 method. we want to have 2 RDP_TCP
connection enable

how would you assign cluster IP address to listed as the primary IP address
for the network adapter ??

Method 1
1. Click Start, point to Run, type tscc.msc in the Open box, and then click
OK.
2. Double-click RDP-Tcp in the right pane.
3. On the Network Adapter tab, click All network adapters configured with
this protocol in the Network adapter box.

Method 2
Make sure that the cluster IP address is listed as the primary IP address
for the network adapter. (This prevents access to the Terminal Services
server by using the host address, but enables the NLB functionality to work.)
