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 have rebooted, shut down and restarted, run "ifconfig carp1 state
master", changed the sysctls, removed the hostname files, rebooted, then
replaced the hostname files, run with only one system up, fiddled with
the advskew and lots of other things.

Even with no other system running, carp will not go into MASTER state,
period, it won't try, it won't log.

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
