Hi everybody,
I've got a pretty trivial question but I'm kind of disoriented.

In the CARP man pages is clearly stated
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/carp.html:
__________________________________________________________________
"To enable support for CARP, the FreeBSD kernel must be rebuilt as
described in Chapter 9 with the following option:
device carp

Alternatively, the if_carp.ko module can be loaded at boot time. Add the
following line to the /boot/loader.conf:
if_carp_load="YES" "
__________________________________________________________________

I'm not new to FreeBSD but I didn't manage to load that as a module, not
while the OS is running neither at the startup adding the param on
loader.conf.
I'd love to do that instead of recompiling the kernel to get that
working on any node.
I'm talking about FreeBSD 8.1.

Am I missing something?
Any tip would be appreciated.

Does if_carp.ko exist under /boot/kernel/ ?

If so:
[root@lefty] ~# ls -lart /boot/kernel | grep if_carp
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel    197392 Feb 16  2011 if_carp.ko.symbols
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     44336 Feb 16  2011 if_carp.ko
[root@lefty] ~# kldload if_carp.ko
[root@lefty] ~# kldstat | grep if_carp.ko
47    1 0xffffffff814fe000 4dd0     if_carp.ko
[root@lefty] ~#

should work.
