You can use iproute (apt-get install ..., but you have to use kernel 2.4.x; so if you use potato, please upgrade first with "deb http://people.debian.org/~bunk/debian potato main" in your sources.list) and visit http://www.ds9a.nl Having the cbq.init script would really be helpful (making your life a lot easier); you can get it from somewhere on the Internet (just use the search engines). BTW, I don't think that iproute would limit UDP bandwidth though. (Would somebody clarify this please?) Oki
