Hi, 
   I can't seem to subscribe to freebsd-net mailinglist. I have  1 question 
however. 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<UP,RUNNING> 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 it should ssh to the backup server..
