Howdy all,
I'm looking for some suggestions for ratelimiting NNTP traffic on my
network. I'm on a wireless connection and when I fire up my newsreader
it hogs bandwidth and dominates the radio. While this is good for me
;), my ISP doesn't care too much for it.
My firewall is a 5.0-release box using ipfilter and ipnat. I've read
about dummynet, but it seems that I'd need to build ipfw rules for it.
I've also heard some talk about ALTQ. Anyone have any reccomendations
of one over the other. Do you need to recompile the kernel for ALTQ or
is it applied via patches or something?
Thanks,
Shane
