Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com Correct me if I am wrong.. But you can differentiate shaping of traffic of the same protocol if it has different Type Of Service. You can for example give higher priority to SSH shell and lower the priority of scp bulk file transfers as they have different TOS. Don't know if there exist anything like it for HTTP (don't think so). If it doesn't exist you probably have to find another way (not in PF). Or you could have the ISO downloads from a different IP. Maybe you should give ip aliasing a try (nice howto in the openbsd faq). You could then have servers bind to these aliases, and then control how much bandwidth these aliases can use with pf or something. /Per-Olov -Jim

plate logos
I know they make stickers, but does anybody know where one could get ahold of OpenBSD 1x1" plate logos? If nobody makes them for OpenBSD, that'd probably be a nice thing to have along side the release stickers. :-) http://www.freebsdmall.com/cgi-bin/fm/bsdplate?id=Ap3GkXt4&mv_pc=99 ^ what I'm talking about. Thanks. -- Jim Capozzoli
Re: google spreadsheets and openbsd 3.9 + mozila-firefox from ports

Only after i minimize mozila-firefox i get a change to have a confortable environment. Did anybody already faced such scenario? Thanks in advance. The only lag I get on openbsd/amd64 (firefox-1.5.0.1 package) is when I'm actually in a spreadsheet window. Otherwise, everything else runs fine (I have a blank spreadsheet open in another tab right now). -- Jim Capozzoli

As machine we defined something with processor, ram, network, hard disk and a connection to the internet. So no Newton or toaster (at least not if there's no disk being toasted). Thank you in advance, Falk I have a router using two dc(4) interfaces, running OpenBSD 3.9. It has an Intel i586 75 MHz processor with a whole 16 megs of memory, and a 4 gig hard drive. I remember I tried to use apache as a caching proxy server once..yeah that didn't go so well. But if I'm lucky, it'll only take around 30 seconds to login with SSH. :-D -- Jim Capozzoli
