Mark,
thanks for that suggestion, i indeed did some googling and found some
webpages that talk about this:
http://lass.cs.umass.edu/software/qlinux/index.html
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=3369 (june 2001, already
old news ?)
now i only have to check that these modules can also works for my
'workstation' setup. and does this need a new 'virtual' IP address
that contains a QOS'ed adapted internet stream ?? (hope i make sense)
more like this:
internet -> QOS module -> regulated output -> all applications
i need to understand a bit more about how this QOS works i think. =)
the linux kernel mailinglist is maybe a better place to ask ?
