Shame, it does degrade the worth of having CARP if every outage actually equals two in my opinion. I have this set up on other servers using keepalived/vrrp, if a box comes up and the already running box has the same priority, the newer box falls back to standby mode. This lack of a "no preempt" style feature is especially as all my NAT sessions keep dropping. Unless it's me, SSH drops, SCP drops, these are the main protocols in use. HTTP is fine but it is only very short connection durations. CARP isn't looking good for me so far. Oh well, thanks for confirming. I have been playing around trying to make this work but I can't. I think I will leave it. Cheers, James. _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
