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.

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. :) Thanks again! _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
