Have NLB set up and working. Just two servers, web1 and web2. I set up NLB on web1 and can view both machines as Converged. (I had to specify a login/pass to connect to web2). On web2, looking at the NLB Manager, it only shows web2 and says in the log "Accessed Denied. Error connecting to web1".

Any ideas how to fix?

MAke sure you use the same password on both for setting up NLB.

Isn't it bad practice to have the same password for two administrator accounts on different machines? – Igor K Jun 10 '10 at 8:38
No when settiung up NLB you pick a password. I have not done it for a while so.... – ggonsalv Jun 10 '10 at 10:45

Often the NLB manager doesn't refresh it's view so the access denied error message may be stale. Try restarting it.

Another thing to check is the cluster type (unicast or multicast) and which adaptor you are connecting to as part of the cluster. If you have picked the cluster address on one side and not the other it may appear to be working, it just depends on whether the request was redirected to the correct machine at the time the request was made.
