Application uses ASP.Net 2005 and SQL server 2005
We are connecting to the web application from a local machine. When we
click a button on the app a file should be downloaded to the web
server where the app is hosted. This works with Kerberos enabled and
using integrated security set on the website properties.
The problem is the web server has recently been clustered and now has
active and passive nodes. To connect to the portal now, we pass the
name of the parent cluster node in the URL which then gets routed to
the active node where the application is installed. The portal works
and opens up, however the file can no longer be downloaded to the
local machine where the app is installed (the active node in the
cluster).
If we connect to the active node directly, bypassing the parent
cluster then we are able to download the file.
If we set the authentication of the website to basic so that Kerberos
is not used and then hit the portal using the cluster to gain access
to the active node then the file is downloaded successfully.
The file is not downloaded when we use Kerberos and try to gain access
to the application using the cluster to route to the active node.
The error that we are receiving is a http 401 unauthorized error
message.
Could you possibly shed some light on the situation, and things we can
try to resolve this issue?
Any help would be greatly apreciated.
