ACE 4710 Lbs and SharePoint 2007 issues

[pndennie93]

We have 2 4710 ACE boxes servicing our Sharepoint farm.  Users try to go to Sharepoint will get a page not displayed.  We have to add ahost file to one of the sharepoint webservers and then they work just fine and get their data.  We have looked and the config is very simple for the ACE.  Any ideas on what can be causing this?

"We have to add a host file to the sharepoint server" -

Do you mean you are putting the DNS name of the sharepoint server into the host file on the client which is accessing the loadbalancer?

If so - there are non-relative links or redirects occuring.

If its a redirect, ACE can rewrite the Location header if its HTTP between the ACE and the server.

Can you share your config on your ACE?
