I have enabled htb with sfq on a router providing 8 openvpn tunnels. I made it using the "up" option in the configuration file of each VPN. It allows to load a shell script (hook) once the TUN device is created by openvpn. The script just apply the QoS on the TUN device of the tunnel. I guess something very similar can be done on the client side if ever needed. -- Nicolas Sebrecht -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe lartc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
