There doesn't appear to be a if_carp.ko module in the -CURRENT source tree, however.

Was the functionality of if_carp.ko rolled into another module? You should definitely read this changeset: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/228571 and the updated carp ifconfig syntax in man carp. As for if_carp.ko, it was renamed into carp.ko as part of the CARP implementation overhaul. This only affects CURRENT. -- wbr, pluknethelp
