Ok, I managed to figure out one thing. Apparently I was disabling traffic shaping wrong, commenting out TC_ENABLED rather than setting it to No. This used to work, but an update somewhere along the line seems to have changed that. So, with traffic shaping enabled, I can't seem to get any decent speed with a config that used to work fine. -- Thomas Fjellstrom [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Shorewall-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-users
