[LARTC] Problem setting filter rule for incoming tc

[LARTC] Problem setting filter rule for incoming tc

[Giorgos Gaganis]

Goodmorning

I am trying to use traffic control on a slackware 9.1.

I downloaded iproute2.

The system comes with linux 2.4.22 so I run into problem with the 
compilation of the package. After diging in the list archives I found a 
post about using 2.4.21 for compile and it worked.

This far ok.

After that I  issued:

tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle ffff: ingress

which worked ok with no error messages and after it I could see stats 
for it with tc -s qdisk.

then I tried:

tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 50 u32 match ip src\
    0.0.0.0/0 police rate 150kbit burst 10k drop flowid :1

and it brakes with

RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument


Thank you very much in advance
