Is something special needed to enable these qdiscs ? delay was my earlier name, netem is the current one.

You probably need to build/run newer version of tc see http://developer.osdl.org/dev/iproute2 _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
