|
|

I'm lost on this one and the hosting providers NE's aren't helping much.
I have one Win 2003 server running IIS 6. The machine sits behind a load balancer and internally uses private IP addresses. I have two unique privates routed through the VIP outside to two unique publics.
I run two sites on this box. Currently they are both running off the same (original) IP but since they both need unique SSL certs I can't run both off the same IP and have them both use port 443. So the second site SSL is bound to 4443 and the client thinks its lame calling the port through the address (which it is). Enter the need for the second IP.
Well now when I take out the all assigned setting in IIS on the second site and attempt to bind it to the new IP I get a Bad header request error (500 in Firefox). I know that's an error from the box so it's getting to the box without an issue. I also have hosted multiple sites bound to multiple IP's on the same box with only one NIC in the past. The host is telling me I need a NIC for each unique IP address (my response was sure maybe in the early 90's).
Anyone have any ideas or any experience with this stuff?

We frequently bind multiple unique IP's to a single NIC without issue, in 2k and 2k3. Dumb question but did you verify port 443 was enabled in IIS for the new site after you changed it from a virtual host to a specific IP?
Ask you provider for a copy of today's W3SVC logs, they should be able to give you more insight into what's happening with the incoming request.

It's not a port issue with regards to SSL. I was just trying to hit the site via regular HTTP. It's hitting the box, IIS is returning the error. Which tells me that something is getting mangled in the VIP translation.

Why use a load balancer when you have only one server? Is the load balancer at least offloading SSL from the webserver?

Are you sure its the right domain providing the 500 error from the server? If thats the case, then it seems that the problem would have to lie in your IIS config (which I don't use).

Re: load balancer, it's not my decision. It's the parent companies footprint that the subsidiary (that I work for) uses their space. We're moving to a different data center in January so it won't be an issue then, but for now it is. And yea they don't want to wait.
Kemble, thats what I'm thinking too, and I've used IIS for ages. The configs I'm using now I know work fine with a standalone box, so I assume there are some differences with using NAT'ed addresses and their config. I just was curious if anyone else had the same experiences.
