All,

My group is running Tomcat 4.1.24 inside of the Jboss 3.2.1/Tomcat
distribution on Win2K. Our test environment is two machines behind an F5
BigIP HTTP load balancer. We are using Jboss/Tomcat to handle all HTTP
and HTTPS traffic directly. On each machine we generate an SSL
certificate for the URL that gets translated to the IP address of the
load balancer. The client is a Win32 client that opens up an SSL session
and then sends a series of requests through the session.

When we run the client through the load balancer with only one machine
responding everything works great. When we run it through the load
balancer with two machines, get connected to machine A, send one request
to machine A, and then turn off machine A so that all further requests
are routed to machine B we get the following exception on machine B...

   2003-10-15 10:35:24,645 DEBUG
[org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint]
   Handshake failed javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Remote host
closed
   connection during handshake

I'm trying to figure out if I'm completely screwed because the SSL
session is not portable or if there is something that I can do in terms
of configuring the cluster so that the client doesn't have an issue with
losing the first machine.

Any joy for me today?
