*It has some potential, I agree, having looked it over a bit. But the
problem with Wonder Shaper (at least as I understand it) is that it doesn't
restrict anything. Recall that I was looking to restrict certain
ports/services/programs to less than what my bandwidth would be. This was
for multiple reasons, not the least of which is I don't want one system to
dominate the download pipe (or the upload pipe, but downloads are far more
of a worry at this stage). I might look at it again, but I don't recall
seeing anything in the Wonder Shaper scripts that would say, for example,
Bittorrents and HTTP downloads are restricted to 10 mbit/s, meanwhile SSH
and it's related (scp, etc...) can use up the whole bandwidth available to
the NIC.*

*Maybe I missed it, and if so I'll go look again. But as my memory works,
Wonder Shaper, nice that it is, isn't what I'm looking for. *

*Thanks though!*
