    Load Balancing Question

    I have a web app that is installed on 2 web servers. Users are sent to
    either one of them using a load balancer. A part of my application allows
    uploading of data files. At this point we are planning to save the files to
    a third server which is accessible by both web servers. Hence I am trying to
    figure out how accomplish this?
    * Do I create a shared folder on the third server and give access to web
    server1 and 2 to write the files? If yes, what exactly I should be doing
    (what account to use and how to share etc and type of permission etc) ?
    I am open to any other ideas/suggestions too. TIA.

    (Assuming the sites are using anonymous login) You will need to change the
    anonymous user to a domain user that has access to the 3rd server. Then
    setup security on the shared folder accordingly.
