i used CBQ for packet filtering before with the help of ian. i am looking
into transparent proxies and fine grain firewall rules (like block ICMP
packet with extremely large size..or anti-DDOS or anti-ping flood of
death). very interesting the granularity of the new netfilter and ip tools
of kernel 2.4 are so powerful that they beat the pulp out of any other
commercial product(hardware or software).
just have to do some real quantitative tests first.
