Its bizzare how the "linux bandwidth arbitrator" authors have never heard of HTB, LARTC people have not heard of "arbitrator". :) arbitrator has some nice features, it acctually tracks the bandwidth usage and can limit the big spenders - so its more dynamic than pure "tc". The problem is its completelly different than "tc" and requires a number of strange kernel patches (that perhaps are not tested enough). I wish I could see an integration of the solutions ... btw, this list is about LARTC so the arbitrator still somehow belongs in this categorry, although it doesn't use "tc". -- Damjan Georgievski jabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
