[LARTC] Help me start ...

[Valentin Deltov]

Hi.
I am a new linux user and i would need some help.
I have a local area network with 3 machines and a RedHat 7.3 used as a
router and connected to the internet and local lan.
The bandwidth provided by the ISP is 128 KB.
I want to make sure that my computer (Windows 2000)  is guaranteed a 3KB
bandwidth and to force the local mail server (installed also on linux) to
upload mail at max 2KB.
I need this because whenever i send an email i have to wait for it to be
delivered because it just eats all my bandwidth.
I also need to guarantee a 3K bandwidth for my personal computer because I
am playing with my friends over the internet and if a download  is made from
another computer i just cant play anymore.
I would apreciate some precise help (steps, links or software applications)
because i really don't have time to read and understand all the
documentation available al lartc.org.

tnx a lot

I think you have no other option then reading the docs at www.lartc.org and 
www.docum.org.  That's all information there is.  It's not so difficult to 
understand, but you will have to spend some time reading.
