Hi William,
I don't know for sure, but I remember dealing with this kind of problem
and setting preempt did work, maybe worth a try:
/etc/sysctl.conf:
net.inet.carp.preempt=1
Anyone else?
HTH,
Vinicius

Hello all,
I am a new to OpenBSD but not *nix in general...
I have two systems running OpenBSD 4.2. It has 9 carp interfaces, and
has been running fine for months. All of a sudden, both systems are
in BACKUP state.
I halted one of the systems then on the remaining system rebooted,
shut down and restarted, run "ifconfig carp1 state master", changed
the sysctls, removed the hostname files, rebooted, then replaced the
hostname files, fiddled with the advskew and lots of other things.
Even with no other system running, carp will not go into MASTER state,
period, no errors, no logs.
I tried setting net.inet.carp.log=1 and 2 and 1000, I see no logs
anywhere in /var/log.
Anything else I can look at?
William
