Thak you for your hints!

 > 1) 6kbit is really too small it should be at least 10 ..

I tried with 12, 20 and even with 30kbit for 1:3

I noticed, that it work for some seconds (or 1-2 minutes) but than the 
1:3 class gets more then it should get :(.

I made a test with settings:
---------------------------------

tc qdisc del root dev eth0
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 htb default 3

tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 htb rate 128kbit ceil
128kbit burst 20kbit

tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:2 htb rate 98kbit ceil 
128kbit quantum 4900 burst 20kbit

tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:3 htb rate 30kbit ceil 
128kbit quantum 1500

tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 u32 match ip sport 
80 0xffff flowid 1:2

Bevore test: (reseted htb)
--------------------------------
# tc -s class show dev eth0

After test:
------------

  rate 9488bps 8pps
  lended: 1452 borrowed: 1452 giants: 0
  tokens: -561135 ctokens: -97151

Description of the test:
------------------------
On the beginning it was everything OK, after 1 min, 1:2 lost his 98kbit. 
Than he got sometimes his 98kbit again and sometimes he got even 30kbit.


1. Can I do something more to find out what happen?
2. What does mean: "queues are build up" ?
