Re: [TCLUG:12053] traffic shaper

[Dave Sherman <dcsherman@uswest.net>]

I can attach shaper0 to either eth0 or eth1, but not both at the same time. I
checked /var/log/messages, and found an error stating that device shaper1 did
not exist (this was when I tried attaching shaper1 to eth1, after attaching
shaper0 to eth0). When I try to attach shaper0 to eth1 while it is already
attached to eth0, I get the message 

	shaper: Device or resource busy

So I guess it only wants to attach to one device at a time. Actually, though,
since I really only care about capping the download bandwidth, attaching to eth0
should be all I need. This box is a firewall to my lan, with eth1 connected to a
T1, and eth0 to our internal hub. So if the output from eth0 is capped, that
should effectively cap my users' download bandwidth. I hope. Sound good to you?
