Going well, thanks for asking.

I'm not.

I post under *ONLY* this name.

Keep dreaming, Alan/Tom/Sidney. I don't have any aliases.
How many do you have?

1/. I think your workaround is perfectly satisfactory, as a first step
and a simple step to doing the traffic shaping that you want. Its been
fast, and it is reliable. This is good use of time.

Makes sense. If I could set speed per socket, that woul dbe even
better, but even just limiting myself to 100 mbps should work.

It is in root' crontab, which is in CVS etc.

Agree

- it unnecessarily restrictive if the bx CAN use the bandwidth cos
nothing else is.
I am not clear on what your boundary router is or if it is something you
have administrative control over. But that is the place where -
assuming its a Cisco, or like one - you should be applying centralised
traffic management by whatever algorithm suits the overall company
business best.

Our network guys do not like this and I personally sort of agree with
them, too much trouble potential.

the responses were adequate. This is a technical newsgroup, an the
answers hang around for posterity. The SPIRIT of Linux, and Usenet
(never the LAW) is that it should be overall beneficial to the
community it putatively serves.

I agree and never cared a bit about that worthless subhuman turd Alan
Connor, or Sidney or whatever else.

Definitely no need to reason with people who are so dumb and lack
proper focus.

Due to extreme spam originating from Google Groups, and their inattention
to spammers, I and many others block all articles originating

more readers you will need to find a different means of
posting on Usenet.
