Need a web page that responds with Local server name

[James]

We have two Windows Server 2003 Web servers behind an F5 load
balancer("server1" and "server2"). Application requests are via the dns name
of this "cluster" ("servervip"). The application needs to return the name of
the server the handles the request (asp) so the application can check a local
security group on that server to grant or deny access to that appliation.
Why this way? I don't know, I did not write the app...
Request.ServerVariables, which works perfectly with direct request to one of
the servers (bypassing the virtual), returns empty when called throught the
virtual. Hard coding the server name in the asa, ini or other is not an
option.

Best regards,
James
