Well, I work for an ISP Company that sells the Internet Service to a Cybers, in each cybers we install a linux firewall with 2 network cards between the internet and the intranet, and the clients says the the conection has a problem because they execute a ping since an intranet machine [inside the firewall] to our MAIN ROUTER [out of my firewall] and they obtain as results "time out" or "times in seconds and must be in micro seconds or miliseconds". Obviously this occur when I configure the cbq [64Kbit], when i turn cbq off all is ok, BUT I NEED CONTROL THE BANDWITH all traffic minus the ping service. That is the reason why I need that the ping service not be controlled [or be prioritized], FOR THE CLIENTS, can you give me a good example for that? :) Thanks Alexandra "David A.
