 Sir,

 Thanks for the wondershaper utility!

 It has improved the response time for my ssh connections to my home
 server whenever i need to access it from the Internet.

 However, is there a way to setup a bandwidth, say 10kbits/sec (i only
 have 128kbits/sec DSL), and assign it to a particular traffic type like
   kazaa and other P2P file-sharing?

 This way it will guarantee that my home users of kazaa will only eat up
 and share that total small amount amongst my family and nothing more.

 I don't want to restrict P2P usage in my home network but just put a
 configurable limit. Any help will be greatly appreciated. :)
You can limit some parts of the traffic to a lower bandwidth.  But the problem 
is to match that traffic.  And kazaa is very hard to match.  It uses random 
ports and even ACK packets for uploads.  
As fas I know there is no way to perfectly match kazaa traffic.
