Hi All,

We have a pair of routers that route traffic between VLANs on our
switches.  We need to run dhcpd for each of our VLANs.  These VLANs
all use different subnets.  Currently, we are encountering two
stumbling blocks:

1) dhcpd will not run on CARP interfaces.  Instead, we have to run it
on the vlan interfaces, which means that we must then assign IP
addresses to these vlan interfaces as well.  That's kind of annoying.

2) One of the downsides to running dhcpd on a pair of CARP boxes is
that there is no syncing of the leases file.  So, if we have a /24
that has 240 machines, all using dynamic IPs, and the primary CARP box
fails, dhcpd on the backup box will have no knowledge of those 240
leases.  Any ideas here?  Can we simply rsync the leases file?

thanks for the cool software.

Chris
