I've installed and am happily running Bering 1.0r3 with a set of basic rules but wanted to play with traffic shaping.
I've loaded the tc.lrp and read that HTB is configured. However, when I try to issue even basic tc commands I get the following message: "RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument". This seems to occur regardless of the tc action - filter, qdisc, etc - and regardless of the class or queue being used. The machine has Red Hat 7.1 installed on its hard disk from a prior use, and the same commands work well, so I know its not directly hardware related. The network interfaces are performing well for my simple Baring installation, so I'm quietly confident that its not my initial configuration settings - DHCPd is working and traffic is entering both interfaces and able to exit the other side. The PC is an HP Vectra P-II with 512 Mbyte RAM, and is booting from the floppy disk. It has two 3Com 509 PCI cards. The eth0 is connected to a very dumb hub and eth1 is connected to my desktop via a crossover cable. At the moment, I have the system unconnected from the Internet so no PPPoE or PPP complexities - just plain IP/Ethernet traffic. To double check the disk, I recreated a brand-new disk from the download image and got exactly the same errors. Does Baring require traffic shaping to be done via Shorewall? I've now created a tcstart script for Shorewall which mirrors the tc shell script and am still getting the same errors. Any help is really appreciated.
