Hello all, Reading through the list I realize that most of what you people talk about is way over my head... But I'm trying. I'm new to all this traffic shaping thing and I'm stuck at the very beginning: I'm trying to configure my kernel so I can set up a HTB on my ppp0 interface. I'm running Debian sarge and have iproute2 installed (2.4.7). I downloaded kernel 2.4.20-rc2 which includes the HTB code. Now I gathered that I need to enable CONFIG_NETLINK and CONFIG_RTNETLINK among other options. However, for the life of mine I can't find these options. Even when I grep through the .config file they don't show up. I see CONFIG_NETLINK_DEV but that's it. And when I want to set up a qdisc on ppp0, for instance tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1:0 htb default 5 all I get is HTB init, kernel part version 3.7 HTB: need tc/htb version 3 (minor is 7), you have 10 "RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument" Can anyone please point me to the relevant section in menuconfig to enable the CONFIG_*NETLINK options Thanks, Ben _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
