Look at www.bandwidtharbitrator.com. Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator is software developed by a guy in the town where I live (Lafayette, CO). He made a presentation at a local LUG ~6m ago. He seemed to know what he was doing, and interested in helping small users. Its not free, but its not expensive, and you can try it for free. I think his deal is that you pay for the User Manual. -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
