LARTC - Nov 2002 - FrameRelay like QoS

I''ve read quite a bit of material about QoS under linux with the tc
command - but haven''t found exactly what I''m looking for - and
is
probably best described as frame-relay like QoS.

I have a DSL link that is shared out between a few people- I''d like to
set a rule that users are guaranteed a fraction of bandwidth - but if
the capacity is unused busting up to 100% bandwidth is allowed.

i.e. Access Rate 512Kb.
Users get a committed rate of 128Kb, but can burst upto 512Kb if the
remaining bandwidth is unused.

Any pointers on where to start reading (or if I''ve missed out anything
already).

If you use htb, you can create 1 class / people.  The rate is guaranteed.  
With the ceil, you can allow them to burst up to link bandwdith.
