Thanks Andy. I changed 'classid' back to 'flowid' but whenever I run the script, it throttles both uploads and downloads to the set rate - can you see why this would happen by perusing my script? I'm thinking that the virtualization is what's causing the problem! Cheers, Anthony. PS: Andy, please respond to this email as opposed to ther other one. I forgot to change my Outlook account before transmitting and thus ended up using the incorrect email address and message was rejected by LARTC. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Beverley [mailto:andy@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, 8 February 2007 4:18 To: Anthony Kamau Cc: 'LARTC' Subject: RE: Problems with HTB. Help! tc filter add dev ifb0 parent 1:0 prio 0 protocol ip handle 10 fw \ flowid 1:10 I'm getting out of my depth here so may be wrong, but as I understand it 'handle' is the MARK, flowid is what it should be classified as.
