Same ports, 50000-51000 and 65437. I choose these ports because they are the ports that I have passive ftp traffic on and 65437 is the active ftp port. I just dont understand why the inbound traffic is being limited. The outbound shaping works fine. Script: I am using the following script to limit my outbound traffic. This scipt runs on a box behind my firewall. It limits my outbound passive ftp traffic to 39K perfectly....just like i want. However, i just noticed that it is also limiting uploads coming to my server. Is there something I can change to make it not limit uploads to my server? #!/bin/bash #shaping passive ftp traffic # mark the outbound passive ftp packets on ports 50000-51000 iptables -t mangle -D POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MYSHAPER-OUT 2> /dev/null > /dev/null iptables -t mangle -F MYSHAPER-OUT 2> /dev/null > /dev/null iptables -t mangle -X MYSHAPER-OUT 2> /dev/null > /dev/null iptables -t mangle -N MYSHAPER-OUT iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MYSHAPER-OUT iptables -t mangle -A MYSHAPER-OUT -p tcp --sport 65437 -j MARK --set-mark 20 iptables -t mangle -A MYSHAPER-OUT -p tcp --sport 50000:51000 -j MARK --set-mark 20 iptables -t mangle -A MYSHAPER-OUT -m mark --mark 0 -j MARK --set-mark 26 # clear it tc qdisc del dev eth0 root #add the root qdisk tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: htb default 26 #add main rate limit class tc class add dev eth0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 10000mbps #add leaf classes tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:26 htb rate 10000mbps tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:20 htb rate 39kbps #filter traffic into classes tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 prio 0 protocol ip handle 20 fw flowid 1:20 tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 prio 0 protocol ip handle 26 fw flowid 1:26 _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
