I have snipped out part of a script to load balance and bandwidth shape upload traffic to a NIC (eth0/ETH_WAN) on a 2mbit/256kbit ADSL line. The balancing will be carried out for 3 users with 1+ PCs connected on another NIC. There are iptables instructions (not shown in the script) to mark packets based on PORT and TOS. These are snipped as the marking appears to work its just the TC FILTERs that just disappear :-( Stef (or anyone else :-) can you please explain why: # tc filter show dev eth0 # shows no filters are in place on eth0 after running the script below??? Is this a problem with having a 2-level deep HTB class tree?? When my HTB tree is only 1 level deep the TC filters get fed back properely with the above command!! BTW I don't get any errors when running the script from a CLI.
