I've recently set up a LEAF "Bering-uClibc" Firewall - 5.1.2-rc1, on an old K6-2 machine I had laying around. Because the K6-2 CPU doesn't implement the CMOV instruction, I'm running the i486 version of the distro.
I've been able to solve a number of issues in the setup and configuration on my own (this isn't my first LEAF router), but I've run into a major issue when trying to set up traffic shaping. For testing purposes, I'm using the shorewall example for wondershaping-like behaviour, modified for my setup: tcdevices file #INTERFACE IN-BANDWITH OUT-BANDWIDTH ppp0 3500kbit 650kbit tcclasses file #INTERFACE MARK RATE CEIL PRIORITY OPTIONS ppp0 1 5*full/10 full 1 tcp-ack,tos-minimize-delay ppp0 2 3*full/10 9*full/10 2 default ppp0 3 2*full/10 8*full/10 2 mangle file #ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO PORT(S) CLIENT USER # PORT(S) MARK(1):F 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 icmp echo-request MARK(1):F 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 icmp echo-reply # mark traffic which should have a lower priority with a 3: # mldonkey MARK(3) 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 udp - 4666 when I do a 'shorewall refresh' using the above, I get this message: ... Setting up Proxy ARP... Setting up Traffic Control... RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory We have an error talking to the kernel ERROR: Command "tc filter add dev ppp0 parent ffff: protocol all prio 10 basic police mpu 64 rate 3500kbit burst 10kb action drop" Failed Processing /etc/shorewall/stop ...

Any help at all would be appreciated. -- Stirling Westrup Programmer, Entrepreneur. https://www.linkedin.com/e/fpf/77228 http://www.linkedin.com/in/swestrup http://technaut.livejournal.com http://sourceforge.net/users/stirlingwestrup ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
