Hello,

I'm running 3.0-Stable.

I'm trying to limit bandwidth to one of the boxes to to below 5Mbps (it's
eating up a full 10Mbps lan)..
Specifically just limit port 80 (web traffic) so I can telnet/ftp without
any lag..

I tried dummynet, but it only seems to queue incoming packets, which results
in me running out of my mbufs (8192 total), and the system reboots.

Can a software solution handle this? Or would I need something hardware
based?

TIA,
Mike
