If C is feeding _through_ your router to your LAN, you can rate limit _egress_ to your internal network from C. It's a bit of a hack doing it that way, but it works well enough from experience. If your router is the consumer of traffic (ie a proxy server, or such) then probably you want to play with ingress policing. -- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
