Hi all, Could someone share the details of how the 50kbps rate-limit is implemented on ftp.archlinux.org? I know Google gives me plenty of results for rate-limiting with iptables and tc but I've never had much success with tc, and the ftp.archlinux.org rate-limiting seems to work perfectly... So why try reinventing the wheel? :) Cheers, ~p
You don't need tc to do traffic shaping, you can use iptables as well for this. It is more primitive though, but for simple tasks it's easier than using tc. Glenn
