Description Marcin Gabrowski 2004-10-11 18:54:55 UTC

UCARP allows a couple of hosts to share common virtual IP addresses in order to provide automatic failover. It is a portable userland implementation of the secure and patent-free Common Address Redundancy Protocol (CARP, OpenBSD's alternative to the VRRP). 

Strong points of the CARP protocol are : very low overhead, cryptographically signed messages, interoperability between different operating systems and no need for any dedicated extra network link between redundant hosts.

I suggest to place this ebuild in net-misc

ucarp-1.1 is already in portage.
Does the ebuild you submitted fix any bugs or other things? Or can this bug simply be closed?

No answer for over a month. Closing.
