There is a port for ifstated from OpenBSD that monitors multiple interfaces and will fail a CARP group if one of them fails. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports-bugs/2004-November/045852.html Although it may have made it into the ports tree by now. > Also, when I configure a carp interface on the command line I do > something like ... > > ifconfig carp0 create 192.168.253.1 \ > netmask 255.255.255.0 vhid 1 advskew 1 > > but when I place the equivalent line in rc.conf as ... > > ifconfig_carp0="create 192.168.253.1 \ > netmask 255.255.255.0 vhid 1 advskew 1" > > and reboot the box, it does not seem to take. Any suggestions? add to rc.conf: cloned_interfaces="carp0,carp1" That will create the interfaces, then you can use the normal ifconfig_carp0="inet 192.168.1.4 ..." -- Jon Simola Systems Administrator ABC Communications
