Interesting...

I'm using tc for various shapings with good success. However, I've never 
tried it for an aliased interface although you should be able to do 
shaping depending on IP address (range) if you wish.

Not looked at shaperd (yet... :-) )

Aside: Also making good use of mrtg that then lets you see what happens! 
I've also good some tweaks on there that I think look more useful than 
smokeping...


Alex, might your bandwidth be limited by your host machine being an old 
slow beast?...

Cheers,
Martin
