New G4 Load Balancing question again

Hi folks.

The new G4 we got in the office is still not taking the load from the
slower Motorola Starmax server.
I have waited a few days for the cache to have cleared on the other servers
around the net, but the Starmax is still taking on more than 70% of the
hits on the web server.

The servers are both on the same network.
The plugin configuration page on both servers is set to dynamic load balancing.
Both plugins are on http load balancing. ftp load balancing is off.

Both name servers are listed on the dns's to contact list.
They both send out lpm packets to each other.

One thing I have noticed that is strange is that on the Starmax (dns2)
sends out lpm packets to dns2. As does the G4 (the G4 is dns1 and it also
sends out lpm packets to dns2).

One thing I haven't tried is to have a fixed value for the load balancing.
But, we would prefer to have it do the load balancing dynamically.

Does anybody have an explaination?
I'm all out of ideas.
I hope I have given enough info but if you need more config info just let
me know.

Thanks again.
I really appreciate it.
