Hi!
I''m trying to control the bandwidth usage of a filesharing client.
I''ve read a little bit of the LARTC HOWTO, but I''m not sure it
gives me the
solution, or I can''t see how it could give one.
I was thinking about the possibility to run the application in an
"artificial
environment" (relatively to the user''s one) where all connections
are slowed
down.
In the howto I red about limiting the bw of an host connected to a network; is
it possible to run a process on a "virtual host" (without effectively
being
on another computer), with its own address and in a sort of LAN with the real
one, so I can limit the bw of that virtual host?
As I said, I''m a newbie, and maybe I''m saying things that just
can''t exists;
but if there is a way, can someone please tell me where to search or to read
(I understand that maybe a full answer would be too long, and maybe it would
be a useless doble work).
Thaks!
Daniele P.
