Getting a MachineKey.GetDecodedData error on a webfarm.

Hey Guys,

We are using a webfarm environment to host our current site. There are
three machine involved in this webfarm. I have copied the same machinekey
information that was generated from
http://www.aspnetresources.com/tools/keycreator.aspx, to the web.config's on
all three machines. I am still receiving this error.

We are using the F5 Networks's BigIP that is using round robbin to
distribute load to all three servers.

The odd thing is that we have another site that is also load balanced by
this BigIP and also has three servers, and everything works fine there. I
have compared the web.config of both of these applications, and they pretty
much look similar.

I have followed the steps in the MSDN article
(http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;Q312906) without any
luck.

Are there any steps that I am overlooking?
