I'm fairly new to this too, but if I understand correctly, you can do this with htb.
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: htb
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate <your total bandwidth>
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:10 htb rate 128kbit tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:11 htb rate 128kbit
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:1 protocol ip prio 1 u32 \ match ip src 192.168.1.1 flowid 1:10 tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:1 protocol ip prio 1 u32 \ match ip src 192.168.1.2 flowid 1:11
It is my understanding that as long as these classes don't have a leaf they will share excess bandwidth.
Anyone else want to comment?
Thanks, Gerry

Im configuring a server, to provide internet to 5 machines, with a dsl connection.
I m not in familiar with bandwidth shaping, so Im going to start reading about it.
What Im looking is something which let me assign the bandwidth in a dynamic way.(dynamic bandwidth allocation).
For example:
If I assign X bandwidht to each PC.(equal), and Pc1 is not using the %100 of the bandwidht assigned, I want the others PC in the network to be able to use the bandwidth PC 1 is not using.
Please let me know if this is possible.
If it is possible which HOWTO should i start reading?.And what tools do i need.
Considering I understand networks basics, and have experience on linux.
Thanks.
Wagner Esteban.
