Hello List! My distribution is SuSE 7.3 Prof. I've successfully installed the iproute2 packet. If I enter some tc-rules the machine returns no errors, but the rules do not affect the bandwidth! Does this mean that the kernel is not compiled with the necessary options? Where can I see, which options the kernel was compiled with (sorry, but I'm newbie)? I didn't change anything, it's a normal SuSE 7.3 distribution. If I knew that the modules are working, I could go on trying to install some rules, or could anyone be so kind and post a simple rule that is slowing down my eth0 interface? I'd just like to see if the tc-command and the kernel is working... Thanks in advance!! -- Yours sincerely, Christian Meier mailto:email2chris@gmx.net

If it is a default SuSE kernel everything you should be already there. Nevertheless if you want to see the config of the kernel. Note that HTB is not there zcat /proc/config.gz will show you the config options set. If you want to add things and then recompile the folowing command will make it as a kernel config file make cloneconfig You may want to have a look at http://susefaq.sf.net/sectionkernel.html -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx

If you have no errors, you have all the support in the kernel you need. > Does this mean that the kernel is not compiled with the necessary > options?

Maybe you can find a config file in the /boot directory. > If I knew that the modules are working, I could go on trying to > install some rules, or could anyone be so kind and post a simple rule > that is slowing down my eth0 interface?
