Hello Zealous Joel!

What release of iproute2 are you using?  (I like the most current release,
now-020116-try [1], and have had good luck with it.)

 : when i m giving below command.
 : root@Rock:~# tc qdisc add dev eth1

This looks like a rather incomplete command to me.  What sort of qdisc are
you adding?  If you are attempting to use HTB and are using the stock
iproute2 distribution (see [1]), then you'll need Devik's patch.  You can
find this patch in the HTB distribution [2].

Probably because you didn't feed it enough boiled brambles.  Software is
terribly willful despite its inanimateness, you know.

Ciao for now,

-Martin

I bet you havent insert QoS modules in your kernel, because you are using
default kernel from slackware instalation disc.

Please make sure QoS modules loaded first..
