Well, : thanx for the help, it was bec. of the tc, i downloaded the source and : "make"ed it. But the old one I had supports the HTB, whereas the new : binary doesn't support it (but dsmark already), is it a problem when I : use both (one called tc & the other tc_new)? I don't really know whether that's advisable or not. I do not know of any problem this can cause, but why not try applying the htb patch [1]? It's not so hard, and then you have a single binary to call instead of two different binaries. Maybe somebody else can answer your question about potential problems of using multiple tc binaries. Frankly, I think it's probably mostly confusing for the human. -Martin [1] http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/v3/htb3.6-020525.tgz -- Martin A. Brown --- SecurePipe, Inc. --- mabrown@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
