Disk Mirroring in Windows 2003

[Chandhru]

I am not sure about the term mirroring is correct or not. I have two web servers one acting as a primary and the other as a redundant backup web server. whenever I make changes to files in my primary server, I would like the changes to reflect in the backup server. please let me know how I can accomplish this in windows server 2003.

This is called clustering.

No, I have already implemented NLB using Windows 2003 NLB manager. but whenever I make changes to my websites home directory folder in one server, I want that change to be reflected in my second server. please help.

there are two types of clustering....
nlb

and
clustering per se.

main difference being one is stateless (each has own data store) and other is staeful (shared data store on Nas, fiber channel scsi...)

however, you could use DFS to replicate the changes to your website info... both servers will refer to the same dfs node.
