is probably what's breaking it.
The following parameters are specific to carp(4) interfaces:
advbase seconds
Specifies the base of the advertisement interval in
seconds. The
acceptable values are 1 to 255. The default value is 1.
advskew interval
Specifies the skew to add to the base advertisement
interval to
make one host advertise slower than another host. It is
speci-
fied in 1/256 of seconds. The acceptable values are 1 to
254.
The default value is 0.
pass phrase
Set the authentication key to phrase.
vhid n Set the virtual host ID. This is a required setting.
Acceptable
values are 1 to 255.

Mike
