Question

Here is my scenario:

I have three Windows VMs on Windows Azure (which is at its preview stage right now) and all the VMs are connected to each other, in other words they are under the same cloud service. What I need to do now is that I will use one VM only for Redis and the other two VMs need to talk to it. I don’t wanna open up the redis to the whole World for several reasons and one of them is that I don’t want to talk to it through the load balancer. I want my VMs to talk to it directly (as explained here: Bypass the load balancer when communicating servers between each other).

I consider using MSOpenTech implementation of Redis. Any I idea how I can configure a structure like this?
