error 0x800706d5 NLB

Hi has anyone solved this problem as I'm getting the error. When I try to
network load balance 2 machines, the first one is setup successfully but
when I try to join the other after entering the username/password I get an
error 0x800706d5. Not much help available on the web about it.

i have 2 pcs with windows2003 stand editon intalled on. i start the NLBmgr
from pc A,and try to creat a new NLBcluster.when try to connect to pc
B,after i type the correct usrname and pass,i got this erro code.

0x800706D5 = "The security context is invalid"

Is the account you are using added to the local admin group on each
server?

yes i have tried to add this usre to the local machine ,but i still got
this erro msg.i am confusing

Start here.

Hello everybody

I had the same error message 0x800706d5
We have two servers (2003) in a workgroup, no domain, no DNS.
Both connected to a single hub.
In the NLB-Manager-Help you can read, that NLB needs either a DNS or
settings in the hosts file.

The solution was to enter the NLB-Clustername in the hosts files of
both servers:

192.168.1.1 cluster.domain.com

With this entry the second server could be added to the cluster
immediately.
Good luck

Since NLB is a networking protocol and usually used in conjunction with IIS
(Website(s) and the Internet/Intranet) what would be the business need to
run in it in an environment without any name resolution?
