Name        : ucarp
Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 1.5
Release     : 1.fc9
URL         : http://www.ucarp.org/
Summary     : Common Address Redundancy Protocol (CARP) for Unix
Description :
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 patents-bloated 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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

1.5, new upstream, multiple bug fixes.  It is recommended to upgrade all hosts
configured to serve a common IP to the new version, then restart ucarp on all of
them.
