You need to ensure each of your roommates has a blackholed IP address. That will solve your problem. ;) > Naturally they do not want a normal LAN where my Linux is the main server. Maybe your router has some QoS options? If you can't stick your Linux machine between the network and the router/switch, there isn't much you could do. More seriously, if you provide them with DHCP you could transparently redirect them through your box and apply QoS without their knowledge, but it would be far easier to just ask, no? -- Jason Boxman http://edseek.com/ - Linux and FOSS stuff _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
