I have a WFC (win2k8R2) with MSMQ setup as a clustered resource to receive messages from 2 servers running a WebApp. I can send messages from either Web machine and recieve them on the Clustered MSMQ just fine as long as node1 of the WFC owns the MSMQ resources. As soon as I fail over the MSMQ resources to node2 of the WFC the queues do not connect. The messages hang in the outgoing queue on the Web Servers.

I am certain that I am missing something with regards to permissions, but I can't seem to find it.

MSDTC and the permissions on the queues are the same because the permissions are all set on the clustered resource, not the local machine.
Suggestions?

This won't be a permissions issue. Access Denied = messages thrown away, NOT stuck in outgoing queue. – John Breakwell Jul 5 '12 at 18:49
This blog post may help when MSMQ works or doesn't depending on node you're on blogs.msdn.com/b/johnbreakwell/archive/2008/02/18/… – John Breakwell Jul 5 '12 at 18:50
Figured it out. Issue was a bad default gateway on node2. – Meredith Ryan Jul 5 '12 at 19:07
So TCP 3-way handshake couldn't complete to set up the network connection to allow messages to flow over. Good catch. – John Breakwell Jul 5 '12 at 20:18
