No problem, just cut-and-past from one of my scripts. Realy, if you wanna learn about, take a few PC's, put Linux on them and try ot out. For fast setup, download my scripts (see link below) and adabt them to your needs like I did in my previous mail. Enable everything in the kernel (as module or build-in). You can find it as the last option in submenu "Networking Options". > > I'm a little confused to your following statement.

But when you are looking at the upstream traffic, the data to the DMZ-zone is going out on the eth2 NIC and the data to the office is going out on the eth1 NIC. You can control the data that's going out on ONE NIC, but you can't manage the data together. You can't say that the outgoing data on eth2 has to be at least 75% of the data that's going out on NIC eth1. There's no way you can manage the two NIC's together. You can try to control the incoming data on NIC eth0 (with a few patches, you can do this with QOS, but I never tried), but when you use NAT, you don't know wich data coming in on NIC eth0 is going out on wich NIC because they are all coming in to the ip-adres of NIC eth0. Hop you understand what I'm trying to say. -- Staf More QOS info : http://users.belgacom.net/staf/
