Hi,
I actually didn't read your entire mail..
but:
Having 192.168.0.9 on both the physical and the carp interface
cannot really work.
Thanks for trying! Unfortunately, I tried that as well (and double
checked it again after your reply) where the carp IP is not assigned
anywhere else. Still the problem remains: the backup (secondary server)
insists on being the master, and it is given priority when the firewall
sends web traffic to the 192.168.0.9 address.
Unfortunately, the ifconfig output with both machines reading "MASTER"
remains 100% identical to those in my original message, so I've ruled
out that it's somehow a problem with the addresses being aliases. I
still have to mv the /etc/hostname.carp0 file to anything else and
reboot for web traffic to flow to the primary server. Grr.
