This is the most braindead defect of Linux (IMHO): You can't, because
you can only shape outgoing traffic on an interface.
However, some people have found that it works just fine if only Linux
would allow it, but due to the rule that "You can only shape outgoing
traffic on an interface" you have to make an intermediate fake device
where the traffic shaping can take place.
The Intermediate Message Queue (IMQ) is a patch for 2.4 and 2.6 and will
allow you to take all the traffic coming in from eth0 and pipe it via
imq0 before routing so you can traffic shape IMQ0.
For kernel 2.6.16 there is a new feature called IFB which does the same
thing (in this context anyway) as IMQ, so if you can upgrade your
kernel, then this might be the best choice.
