| Hi everyone,

| I'm new to this list, I use ipfw+dummynet for traffic shaping.

| 
| Now my issue is, when both users use internet at the same time, let's say
| user A is using a P2P software and user B simply surfing the web.
| 
| Logicaly, user A is taking the whole bandwidth and user B is having issues
| surfing.
| 
| I want to guarantee at least 64K, so user A will have at least 64K when using
| internet.
| 
| I already asked about this in #freebsd channel in freenode.... and I been
| answered
| "use pf's borrow option".

There is a very good tutorial here:

http://alex.kruijff.org/FreeBSD/Firewall_Setup.html

The rules will guarantee that each user gets equal share of the 
available bandwidth ;)
