Good luck!
Ah, I didn't think about doing it in the daemon... That would definitely be easiest, I think I'll do it this way! :)
You don't need tc to do traffic shaping, you can use iptables as well for this. It is more primitive though, but for simple tasks it's easier than using tc.
Now I'm curious... Everything I've seen points to using tc to be able to rate-limit in kbps... The only rate-limiting I know you can do in iptables by itself is packets-per-timeframe (second, minute etc) limiting?
You can use hashlimit for it. And how is rate limiting in kbps not the same as packets-per-timeframe? It's exactly the same. Glenn
