I am using IIS 5.0 on Win2k Server edition. Will jk 1.2.9 solve the issue for IIS too?

You must note what jk version and web server you are using.
If using 1.2.8 you will have up to 20% load-presumption error if
using Apache prefork or worker mpm, because the load balancing data
is maintained per child process.

The 1.2.9 (not released yet, but will be this week I hope) has that
resolved using shared memory.
