[Mono-list] Re: Mono and LVS...

[Robert Jordan]

Dan, Antonio,

In addition to the SQL or the outproc state server, the machines
have to be configured to use the same machine key:

web.config:

<system.web>
...
<machineKey
validationKey="516ac324b1fc318fccb614e5d118d7e2dbfaa60589019dc34f8b936baa1b4c56"
decryptionKey="93ae19e5a1b2813c46bffcefde1876180d8878db76098453"
validation="SHA1"
/>

...
</system.web>
