Hi, I have 2 machines running freebsd 6.0 compiled with "device carp". The example in the carp manual slightly confuses me. I can't make those 2 machines to appear as one... I hope you can help me. machine A has xl0 with assigned ip of 10.10.8.145 machine B has xl0 with assigned ip of 10.10.8.146 Now following the example on carp(4) manual: On machine A: ifconfig carp0 create ifconfig carp0 vhid 1 pass mypasswd 10.10.8.147/24 so now, machine A shows these in ifconfig: carp0: flags=41 mtu 1500 inet 10.10.8.147 netmask 0xffffff00 carp: BACKUP vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 0 meanwhile on machine B ifconfig carp0 create ifconfig carp0 vhid 1 advskew 100 pass mypasswd 10.10.8.147/24 and I got 10.10.8.147/24 is duplicated by xl0 (10.10.8.145/24) What I wanted to do is to do some failover... ssh to 10.10.8.147 and see what machine it would connect to.. then pull the utp out... and repeat the process.. this time i should be able to ssh to the backup server instead.. --------------------------------- Yahoo!
