Hi everyone,
Please disregard the below, I seem to have found the reason (which is
that with esxi, you have to give a VM permission to enter promisc mode
(which it would have to to get the packets to the virtual MAC address
presuambly) so the card wasn't in promisc mode even though openbsd
thought it was.
Good learning point though :)

Hi all,
I have an esxi server set up with 2 separate OpenBSD installations
(4.4-stable generic) and am attempting to correctly configure carp so
that I know it works before implementing this in proper hardware. My
aim is to get them to 'share' 192.168.176.154.
I think I have configured it correctly; the backup correctly changes
status (according to ifconfig) immediately when I take the master
down. I can't ping it, traceroute to it, no mention of it appears on
pflog0 when I changed pf to log everything. Wireshark shows constant
ARP requests and presumably no reply is given. Firewall rules accept
carp traffic.
Can anyone see anything immediately amiss from this?
Thanks all :)
Stu
