traffic control, ip prioriting

[Philipp Koch]

Hello

I'm using a linux pc as a router (ip masquerading) to access the internet.
Now I'd like to set some ips more prioritiy than other ones (to get faster
internet access to some ips). Does somebody know a tool?

Thanks for helping.

Yes, it's called Linux :-). Unfortunately actually setting things
up can be, ah, "a bit obscure" even if you think you have a good
idea of how it should all work. Then again, today I came across
http://www.ittc.ukans.edu/~rsarav/howto/ which should give you
enough to get something not too basic working.
