Once your data has left squid, there is no way to know anymore where it came from. You can try to get the ingress policer working, which tries to do shaping on the receiving interface (before squid). This should work, except that people have been having trouble with the ingress policer. Regards, bert hubert -- PowerDNS Versatile DNS Services Trilab The Technology People 'SYN! .. SYN|ACK! ..
