What interfaces are you using? Specifically, are your clients all on seperate ppp interfaces or conglomerated "downstream" from shorewall and presented as a single ethernet (or something) to that machine?
Generally speaking, I think the way to go about this is set up /etc/shorewall/tcdevices: INTERFACE IN-BANDWITH OUT-BANDWIDTH for each interface (e.g. ppp0 53kbit 48kbit); set up /etc/shorewall/tcclasses: #INTERFACE MARK RATE CEIL PRIORITY OPTIONS with a bunch of rules like: pppN 11 full/4 full 1 tcp-ack,tos-minimize-delay pppN 12 full/8 full 2 default and then set up /etc/shorewall/tcrules with appropriate markings. Mark connections that get high priority (in this example) 11 and everything else 12. You can add more classes if you find that people are running filesharing or whatnot and clogging the pipes, and add a third rule for each client-bound interface for low-priority traffic. Hope that helps (and that I've got my facts straight!)
