I do see some ways to make altq in OpenBSD better & easier. pf would still be the major entry point of course. irix ramblings are completely useless and if they have any effect at all they lower my motivation to work in that area. that was my share of cheap talk on the topic. -- Henning Brauer, h...@bsws.de, henn...@openbsd.org BS Web Services, http://bsws.de Full-Service ISP - Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services Dedicated Servers, Rootservers, Application Hosting

Re: traffic management
Hello Misc, All of a sudden started talking about some fixes. Have I mentioned somewhere that something needs to be corrected, or that something is not working? I just said about remaking to simplify the code. Alternatives queue was initially conceived as framework in which you can with minimal effort to connect disciplines to develop. With the existing code in the form pf/altq add a new discipline has been a daunting task, you need a heap of places to dopiski indicate the new variables need to finish the new syntax. I simply asked why the code altq not do the same as the code nat / rdr, scrub to remove it and greatly simplified. As an option to make altq separately from firewall. -- Best regards, irix mailto:i...@ukr.net

"ohh yeah, that's right, we're using VoIP now! I forgot!", every time I receive a bill from my PSTN Telco with $0 for phone calls (for the past years). ie, pf/altq works so well for me that VoIP becomes so well behaved that I forget I'm even using it, even when uploads and downloads are going like the clappers. Once I go ADSL2+ Naked, then I hopefully won't be getting bills from that crusty money grubbing old Telco ever again, so I might almost completely forget how much pf/altq rocks (until "obvious troll is obvious" comes back of course). So, like others have said, it seems pretty far from broken to me. Maybe you have mis-configured it. Shane

Isn't the onus on the one asking for change to list why it should be changed, and to contribute the code to show why your approach is superior, since Theo has apparently told you before it ain't happening?
