First I must say that RH is a bad choice for what you want to do.
And second why use Linux if you can't/dont want to recompile a kernel -
its not rocket science....

But anyway, if I understand you corectly you want to shape your
traffic - the traffic is passing trough your Linux router. If this is
the case you don't need IMQ. You see although shaping works only on the
packets LEAVING YOUR ROUTER, still packets are leaving the router in the
direction to the Inerenet but also packets are leaving your router in
the direction to you internal network.
