Was just looking through the documentation and didn't notice that it is 
the development version :-(

Suppose I should look at the old method.  There are a  few things that 
do not make sense to me in the example at:
http://www.shorewall.net/traffic_shaping.htm#Downloads

Why is there a download limit for ppp in tcdevices?
I would think you would want the outgoing rules on eth0 to do the delays 
and dropping?

In tcclasses have

eth0            1       100kbit         500kbit         1           tcp-ack
eth0            2       3mbit           6mbit           2
eth0            3       3mbit           6mbit           3
eth0            4       94mbit          full            default #for local 
traffic

I seen no rule  would put in a mark of 4?
Assuming the incoming limit is 6mb
Sum of Rate of  mark 1,2 and 3 if slightly over 6mb.
Sum of ceiling  of  mark 1,2 and 3 if slightly over way 6mb.
I assume the traffic shaping logic is going to assume 100mb is available 
so it will borrow from rule with mark 4 as needed.
So could try to allow up to 12.5mb in from a 6mb connection.
Or is there something that is keeping the total of mark 1, 2 and 3 rules 
from exceeding 6mb?

Thanks

John
