I am having problems getting WSS working properly with load balancing. I
have 2 servers running IIS 6.0 and Windows Server 2003 with network load
balancing and a back-end SQL server machine. I already have 2 static
virtual sites on both servers and that works without problems.
I installed WSS SP1 on server1 with the web farm configuration. Created a
configuration database on the SQL server. Created a new virtual server and
extended it with a new content database. This all works fine.
On server2, I installed WSS SP1 with the web farm configuration. I pointed
it to the configuration database I created earlier. I created a new virtual
server on server2 and extended it with the command
stsadm -o
extendvinwebfarm -url -vsname -apidname -apidtype -apidLogin -apidpwd
where all the values matched the virtual server created on server1.
It seems to have worked and when I go into the Manage Content Databases page
on server 2 it shows the already existing content database and it has the
correct number of sites.
However when I try to connect to the top level site it asks me to
authenticate and then I get a 'Directory listing denied, The virtual
directory does not allow contents to be listed'.
Has anyone else gotten a configuration like this working? Any ideas on what
I have done wrong?
Thanks
