naah, wondershaper is good for "conditioning" a DSL line. but the pipes per protocol, etc. i wrote my own. strictly speaking, it just a bunch of Perl ASP scripts which present a pretty interface and spits out a shell script which uses HTB to do the grunt work. but it's all there. there also is a Gtk-based GUI (of course not web based so you have to run on it the shaper box itself) which you can look for on freshmeat. i no longer tinker with the code, but a version of it manages around 60Mbit of bandwidth ;) my big problem back then was detecting and rate-limiting Kazaa traffic. tough nut, you need to do packet payload inspection (there's a patch from rusty which lets you do that..) to find the Kazaa signatures. but i believe there's a newish project (L7filter?) which does it more efficiently. .. > > i am no longer toying with this code, but if anyone wants it i can send it > > to you. it uses a transparent bridge interface so the linux box is not > > visible. > > That would be very nice... it's ugly, and it has a heck of a lot of dependencies. but i'll put it here: http://myphotos.dyndns.org/shaper-0.01.tar.gz check back later today nalang. :) --- Orlando Andico <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mosaic Communications, Inc. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
