I have tried this a time ago with Bering 1.x and I couldn't get it working (but that may be my fault). Recently I have tried it on my firewall again, which I had upgraded to Bering-uclibc 2.2. This I got working within little time. I installed the tc.lrp package and also the cls_*.o and sch_*.o modules and I am now using a modified version of the wondershaper script (slightly better ping times and down/upload speeds by also doing shaping on my internal interface). I'd suggest using the wondershaper. This way you don't have to know all the configuration details of the qos-htb package, which is just another script frontend to the HTB scheduler. > I also have another following questions: > > - Is Bering U 2.2 kernel ready for QOS HTB? Yes, you can use the HTB scheduler right away, only need the bering-uclibc tc package and the modules for the schedulers and filters, you will be using. > - If I use Shorewall's approach, do I have to declare the netfilter modules > as in the instructions for second approach? Note that was writen for > original Bering? Yes, you have to load these. I don't know exactly which ones the wonderscript uses. You could load them all to be on the safe side, but I think you need at least the following: sch_sfq, sch_prio, sch_ingress, sch_htb, cls_u32, cls_fw Jaap Eldering ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
