Hi everyone,

I am trying to change the rate parameter of HTB class by using this  
code from within one of my functions :

   struct htb_class *cl;
   cl=htb_find(number,q);

   cl->rate->rate.rate = NEW_RATE_VALUE;

   TC shows the correct values, but the traffic rate doesn't change a  
bit.
   Does anyone have any idea what am I doing wrong ? Maybe there would  
be a faster way by sending a netlink  message ?

Piotrek
