Are you now saying that you have your app loaded on 2 servers? (ie. a web
farm). The encryoted auth ticket by default is tied to a particular machine.
The machine.config is set to autogenerate a valid key for the symetric
encryptin/decryption for each application on the system. If you are spanning
multiple servers, you need to edit the machine.config on both servers and
replace the "AutoGenerate, IsolateApp" with a static value that is the same
across the severs.
