Hi Claudio,

I have double check on my lab and everything work fine for the OSPF
part, sorry for my mistake.

But at the end, I'm still having the same problem: the server didn't
know the right route.

OSPF see all the route correctly but the system didn't seem to be
updated.  If I do "route show" I only see the local route pointing
directly to the CARP device instead of pointing to the other router.

route show give me something like this when my cable is unplug from
the "carp" interface:
83.201.77/24    link#10    UC   0   0   -   carp1

What do you think it can be?

Thanks,
FranC'ois

If you are just running with two routers you don't need to use OSPF.
Use CARP for the inside network, setup the upstream sessions on each
router (perhaps even using "depend on carp" to fail over the sessions) and
setup a IBGP session between the two routers -- best via a dedicated
interface. Set "set nexthop self" on the IBGP sessions and you should be
fine.
