Error Code 10061: Connection refused

Question

I am trying to access a set of servers configured to be load-balanced by F5 through an ISA proxy. I get this error message from the proxy each time I try to access it:&nbsp;
Error Code 10061: Connection refused Background:The server you are attempting to access has refused the connection with the gateway. This usually results from trying to connect to a service that is inactive on the server.&nbsp;
Please, how can I resolve this problem?&nbsp;
Thank you in advance&nbsp;

it appears to be an ISA error. are you sure access is allowed via the F5, does the source IP perhaps change and is denied? does the ISA log help you at all?&nbsp;
