Load Balancing - Windows 2003 server

Hello everybody,

I have a big php/mysql board website running on a Dual P3 1 Ghz with 1 GB RAM and Windows 2003 Server.

Now I want to move the MySQL database to a separate server.

So that I will have 2 servers with:

1) win2003 + apache

and

2) win2003 + mysql

Question: How do I have to configurate these servers? Is is simply a remote mysql access? Or is there another way?

Do I need to install apache on the second (mysql) server?

Thanks for you help!!

P.S. Is there may be any sofware that makes such load balancing easier under w2003?
