Hello freebsd-questions, I'm attempting to set up a redundant NAT system where failover is provided by ucarp and using pfsync to keep NAT tables in sync. When I try to set up pfsync, [steven@gateway2:~]% sudo /etc/rc.d/pfsync start /etc/rc.d/pfsync: WARNING: pfsync(4) must be statically compiled in the kernel. [steven@gateway2:~]% ifconfig pfsync0 ifconfig: interface pfsync0 does not exist additionally: [steven@gateway2:~]% sudo ifconfig pfsync0 create ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2: Invalid argument Is pfsync not in GENERIC? I checked the amd64 config file and indeed it does not show up, however pf and pflog are not there either but are usable in the base system, so I am not positive that pfsync being missing is therefore conclusive. I would like to if at all possible use GENERIC so that I can take advantage of freebsd-update etc. Is there some way to get this all running without recompiling the kernel? (You may notice I'm using ucarp instead of carp to avoid recompiling) Thank you for any guidance, Steven Schlansker
