Hi all,

What are the recommendations w.r.t. MSCS clusters (W2k3 EE), and
Firewalls or Port filtering? Good? Bad? Do? Don't?

Thanks a bunch

I personally found this blog post to be most helpful

I never use port filtering, I like real hardware firewalls. As far as
firewalls go, a cluster is really like any other server on the wire. Sorta

Cheers,

Rod
