[LARTC] tcng newie

[MC]

Hi everyone!!!

This is my first post here... I have a problem and I'd like to know if someone
here could help me. I kinda new to traffic control. I have practically no
idea about it. I'm trying to learn about it now. I want to use htb to priorize
some kinds of packets.

I copied some scpripts from a howto about traffic control and htb. I'm trying
to use tcng... 

The thing is that when I run this line:

tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle 1:0 root dsmark indices 8 default_index 0

I get this:

Unknown qdisc "dsmark", hence option "indices" is unparsable

I looked for some information on the net and found that many people say
that TC_CONFIG_DIFFSERV should be set to "y" in iproute/Config .

I searched "iproute" in my hard drive and didn't find anything. I did find
/etc/iproute2...but this directory only has 4 or 5 files and none of them
is called Config or somehting like that.

I'm using SuSE 8.2 and I checked and found out that iproute2 is installed
(it shows on yast)....

What's wrong here?! What should I do?:( PLEASE HELP! :)

Marcelo

Your "tc" binary doesn't support the "dsmark" option.
You need to recompile iproute2 from source and change that Config file
in the source tgz before you compile.


Unfourtenatelly it might fail to compile, and then I dont have an answer
for you. I've been struggling to compile iproute2 on my
Slackware-9.1/kernel-2.4.22 box, searched google.com and I didn't find a
sollution that would work :( YMMV
