Have to look at that, on my list now - thanks.

You list the IP twice, is this intentional?

Did you have the the interface configured already at that point? Can you ju=
st=20
try to do a simple:
  #iconfig carp5 netmask 255.255.255.0
afterwards? Why don't you use an explicit netmask in FreeBSD as well -=20
supposing that the above error is from a "second attempt" - please tell me =
if=20
that's not the case.

Works correctly for me (with the latest patch and ifconfigNG, though - can'=
t=20
go back easily.

Looks correct to me.
