Hello,
     I have a question reagarding CARP on OpeNSBD. I have setup a lab
environment consisting of two machines with three interfaces each
(ext_if, int_if, pfsync_if). Now I ahve two CARP groups; on for
failover of ext_if and one for int_if. The problem is this. If the
machine fails all is well [ ;) ] and the traffic is routed over the
other machine, however if only one interface fails, CARP notices this
and the interface is moved to the otehr machien, however this still
means that either ext_if or int_if is still leftt on the machine with
one failked card. This of course mucks up the routing! So my question
is, how do I best handle this? My solution is that I have now started
coding a small daemon that will down the other interface
automatically should one fail but is there a better way? Can I
somehow link the two CARP groups so that they are aware of each other
adn should one group fail teh other downs as well? I have probably
missed something very simple. Thanks for any tips.

// Jorgen
