It works beautifully with a single NIC but as soon as you add failover, it fails, which really sucks because it will happily do DHCP (provided you run dhclient after the interface is set up otherwise it'll be stuck in INIT phase) and the internal CARP is fully accessible. I just can't get any further than that. Then again people have been reporting strangeness from CARP since upgrading, might try 4.9 and see if it works there.

Absolutely brilliant! Not having this fix would have been a show stopper, with the Kindle Fire being returned to the store. This is the most important app on my Droid, and I can't live without it on my Kindle Fire. Now I don't have to. THANK YOU!! Zack!!! Absolutely brilliant!

Any idea how to use the "greater/less than" characters? The keyboard shows them but treats them as control characters. Thanks! Any idea how to use the “greater/less than” characters?
