I've deployed 2 ADFS Proxy servers in DMZ for load balance purposes with one adfs path from the internet, adfs-ext.company.com. I am getting the following error form one of the Proxy servers.

**********************
When Running the configuration wizard, it was able to establish trust with the ADFS server but only for a moment, and then it would break. This is shown in the event logs trail. I've tried reloading the CERT from the working proxy server, to no avail. FYI, this had been working for a while but only recently did it failed without any alert. Any advise to troubleshoot further is deeply appreciated.
Let me know if any further info is required.
