Or traffic-shape to deal with it, but for that to work right, it requires either lots of spare net->you bandwidth or the cooperation of your upstream. If you (generic "you") want to see the sort of thing this can do, look at my own pool host, 216.46.5.9 - for the last month or so, I've had a big data transfer in progress over its uplink. I'm bandwidth-limiting the transfer, but it still produces a lot of jumpiness in my pool score (it's application-level bandwidth limiting, not router-level). /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
