I think the problem might have been my ISP - after messing around with the script for a day or two - and completely mangling it - I disabled the script - didn't bother checking how my FTP server was doing, but the next day everything was fine without the script. I reloaded the script and all was well.
<side note> I also added my own class (to the new package as well) for the file sharing program my brother uses. It seems to work fine if someone using an active connection connects to me (throttles the bandwidth appropriatly). Unfortunatly if they are using a passive connection I can't throttle them. Here is how the application works: Port 412 is forwarded to an internal computer. With active connections it is a direct (UDP) link 412 -> 412 so I just add a rule that says if the dport is 412 slow the connection down. With passive its (TCP) port 412 -> a random port. Adding a rule with a sport of 412 doesn't work cause it kills the incoming traffic as well. Here are the rules I came up with: tc filter add dev $EXTERN_IF parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 26 u32 match \ ip dport 412 0xffff flowid 1:10 tc filter add dev $EXTERN_IF parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 27 u32 \ match ip src 192.168.2.200/24 6 0xff \ match ip sport 412 0xffff \ flowid 1:20 The above filter doesn't seem to do anything at all. Any ideas would be appreciated. The reason my flow ids are different is because the first connection uses UDP and needs to go before the UDP filter (I think). The send is 1:20 just so I could keep everything together. </side note> Thanks again Sandro S >To: "Simon Bolduc" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: [Leaf-user] Traffic Shaping using TC >Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2002 20:09:18 +0100 > >Hi Simon > >Thanks again for the modified package! > >Do you notice that speed decrease only when uploading to this particular >FTP >server? > >Is it ok for you if we first try to find out why FTP uploads to this (or >every FTP) server gets slower and then begin to implement to "music" rule? > >best wishes > >--- >Sandro Minola | LEAF Developer (http://leaf.sourceforge.net) >mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >http://www.minola.ch | http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/sminola > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Simon Bolduc > > Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2002 6:24 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: RE: [Leaf-user] Traffic Shaping using TC > > > > > > When I'm talking about 8-12 K/s I mean Kilobytes per second.
