You were exactly right here. Moving to the filters instead of the iptables classify solved the issue. As for performance, I have not yet benchmarked it to determine if the filters are fast enough for the number of users I need this to support.

I do however recall there being issues with using iptables classify to targets that were more than 1 level deep in the tc qdisc hierarchy. In such situations it works much better if you instead use a tc filter on the mark instead of an iptables classify. Is there any particular reason you're using classify on a mark instead of a tc filter on the mark? - Jody _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
