I have compiled the kernel with QoS support. I have a switch connected to the LAN interface of the router and three PCs connected to that switch. Two of them are Windows 2000 Workstations and the other a linux web server. I am still in the installation process so I havent got all the cables and all the workstations and servers set up. A friend of mine gave me a script to shape the inbound traffic for the linux server, that way I could limit the inbound traffic to the web server and I could ssh the linux box with a better latency... What I am wondering is how I could shape the traffic in the same way in the linux router, that way I could ssh the linux server from the Internet to the LAN (through NAT) and be downloading my e-mail or any stuff from the Windows Workstations at the same time with a low latency... Any hints? I am new into this shapping things... Many thanks in advance and sorry for my English... Miguel
