Oh, and typically you'd reserve the first instance on each machine to
define other instances in this case. This of course entails the
installation of CF in the multiserver configuration (as does
clustering CF across both boxes).

If you're looking for something simpler, you could simply install IIS
and CF on both boxes, and put a load balancer in front of them.
