Well, you don't need to know how to use tc to configure the cbq stuff from
shapecfg. And, yes, here is an example for proftpd.conf :

  # Limit the bandwidth! 10MB full speed, then only 10kB/s max
  RateReadBPS                  10240
  RateReadFreeBytes            10240000
  RateReadHardBPS              on

Pretty simple and works well for me :-)

I don't recall such a limitation (but have been using shapecfg only since
Enigma), and works well here with 10 and 100 Mbps interfaces.
