Hi all,
We run 2x 3.7 Community Edition ZLB's in a cluster (they sit behind 2x pfSense 
FW's in HA). Behind the LB's are 3x Front End web stacks (nginx, php-fpm, apc). 
The Front End's serve a large and busy website.

This morning we had a report that a user logged in, but after logging in was 
authenticated as a different user altogether. The two users have no connection 
with each other. To me this sounds like poor handling of PHP sessions in the 
customers login code. But I need to rule out the LB infrastructure possibly 
causing it.

We use Hash: Sticky Client as the load balancing method and this appears to 
work fine for the most part. The incident this morning is the first issue we 
have had.

Is there a better method for handling a very high number of sessions passing 
through ZLB? Thanks.

Best Regards,
Dave Byrne
