      Hello,

      I managed to setup 2 pfsense with failover using CARP.
      I configured DHCP servers also with failover.
      The strange behavior is that no DHCP server is authoritative over the second one.
      Leases are given randomly by one of the 2 pfsense box. However leases are correctly synced but the hostname.
      As a consequence, because i chose to add hostname from leases to the dns forwarder, some of the hostname of my local network are not added to the DNS forwarder.
      This is really anoying.
      How can I fix that?
