Hi
I would want to use the patch for squid released by patrick mcHardy, but
it requires that squid is located on the same machine that does traffic
shaping.  My configuration is different:
i have the screening HDSL router directly connected to a multi-ethernet
firewall and the proxy located on a DMZ box.
 i would want the firewall doing traffic shaping.

           Internet
                 |
 -------------------------
 -   HDSL ROUTER   -
 -------------------------
                 |
                 |
 -------------------------                 -----------------
 -       FIREWALL       -  ---------- -   PROXY     -
 -------------------------                 -----------------
      


To the point:
have sense to make traffic shaping on a dmz box that it's not directly controlling
the internet link?

Thanks in advance

I would shape on the firewall.
