[LARTC] Installation problems

[wong cheongseng]

VERY URGENT!!! Hey, i'm final year student in upm. I have install linux 
Redhat 9.0. Wish to build up Qos linux packet filter using kernel-2.4.20.8
i have follow the instruction which i download from internet. But i 'm not 
very understand about the
instruction. The following step have been done by me:-

1) Patch the L7-kernel patch to the kernel (success)
2) Re-compile the kernel (success)
3) Enable layer-7 filtering (success)

4) After i unpack "tar xvzf iproute2_w_layer7_patch-0.9.3.tar.gz"
   Inside there, i found a TC folder- 31 items
  - tc patch - how does the TC link against the new kernel header???         
                   (question)
  - I have make the symbolic link from /usr/src/linux to 
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20.8
  - Where should i put the files inside the TC folder???                     
                             (question)
  - When i "make" to compile, it show me error and tell me to compile the 
kernel first??? (question)
  - Since the tc folder have many files, which should i copy to /sbin/tc???  
                      (question)

5) Protocol definitions
  - after unpack the latest pattern from l7-filter.sourceforge.net
  - i tried to cat all the pattern to /proc/net/layer7_protocols,
    but found error "no such files and directory" - Anythings i did wrong??  
                      (question)

Please reply me as soon as possible. Very urgent!!!
Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for your information.
I told me that you are using HTB shaping,rite?
As i know you need the tc patch for your compiled kernel isnt??
How does the TC link against the new kernel header???

Before that, i have search for info about Layer-7 QoS but not much info i 
got.
Since this is the latest QoS project, but i have read the latest example 
scripct.
It using HTB, SFQ, and etc.
Isn't any differs between the script for both project??
Slackware 8.1 LINUX + your compiled 2.4.20 kernel with all the QoS features 
ON
isn't enough for provide QoS HTB shaping?
Actually, i m very new user for Linux. I don't know what type of Linux 
should i choose.
Any suggestion?
Sorry, if i have ask a very stupid question. I really appreciate your 
information.
Thank you.
