Hrm...I'll have to test this out at home :-/ At work everything is always plugged into a switch (the machines are miles apart), but at home I'm using a crossover cable for the dedicated sync network. But I didn't think that CARP would stay down forever if the sync interface was down :-/ --Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
