it worked... thanks.. I'm gonna test it later to see if it really works & shapes the traffic.. One more question though ... Can I add more than 3 (three) bands ? Like: tc qdisc add dev eth1 parent 10:1 handle 20:bfifo tc qdisc add dev eth1 parent 10:2 handle 30:bfifo tc qdisc add dev eth1 parent 10:3 handle 40:bfifo tc qdisc add dev eth1 parent 10:4 handle 50:bfifo of course , i get an error at the last line... but can I do it in another way ?
