The shorewall firewall can be configured with the 'Wonder Shaper' as described here http://www.shorewall.net/traffic_shaping.htm However this not the sort of project for a newbie with a few weeks experience. A simpler form if prioritising services can be made by changing the priorities in /etc/shorewall/tos You could make ftp a lower Type of Service there. derek -- ---------------------------------- www.jennings.homelinux.net
