By the way, where is the most recent stable ALTQ for FreeBSD 4.x? 

ALTQ on http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/kjc/programs.html is from bronze age at best, 
seeming more likely from late neolith.

ALTQ in pf is 5.x only, and I didn't find a way to reserve bandwidth for high-priority 
traffic in dummynet.

Isn't pure-ftp a ftp solution only? Dummynet is proberbly ruled out
because he didn't like ipfw.

Please don't top-post and please cc people.

Well you have some higher level tools embebed in some services like
pure-ftpd/puredb you can limit up/down bandwitdh and quotas, etc.. But
it's better to limit it with ALTQ/dummynet, that's why they exist.

Did you know you can use ipfw and ipf togetter? (I.e. ipf for
firewalling and ipfw for traffic shapping.) You could try to combine ipf
with ipa (port) but it will not be a nice sollution. (i.e. adding deny
rules when someone uses the internet alot.)

P.S. I moved the cc to questions instead of stable, because i feel this
belongs there more. See the handbook for the descriptions of the
