Thanx, I managed it to get the basic script working but the result IS NOT satisfactory. What is happening is this:- When any user (ex 192.168.0.4 in my script) starts to download a file (Download1) after a while it settles down to the alloted bandwidth 32kbps. If he puts another download (Download 2) after a while it occupies approximately half of the total bandwidht alloted to 192.168.0.4. So far so good..... NOW, when the user(192.168.0.4) cancels any one of the downloads (Say download 1) the other download (download 2) takes a very long time to grow up to the total alloted bandwidth i.e 32kbps. Why is that happening? I can't figure it out. Could SFQ Help?
