Hi, I am currently using Linux 2.2.19 and am attached to many other boxes on a switched 100 Mbit Lan. For some experiments, I would like to model a 56K dial-up connection to a webserver on one machine [maybe more] on the LAN. Techniques regarding modelling the speed in the inbound direction only would be appreciated I have read [more like skimmed through the Linux 2.4 Advanced Routing HowTO but am not sure if that is applicable to 2.2 and scenario's where the machine is not a router but a host]. I am more familiar with FreeBSD ipfw and dummynet but don't want to setup a separate traffic shaper box in bridging mode for this my question is, Is this possible in Linux 2.2. I don't compile my kernel's with firewall support. Is this a requirement Thanks, Yusuf -- Yusuf Goolamabbas yusufg@xxxxxxxxxxxx
