    Yeah linux supports this with kernel 2.4 There is a howto detailing it I think. Have a look at www.netsoc.ucd.ie/LDP for the QOS howto.

    I recall seeing QOS options on Win2000 server last time I installed it, but have never done anything with it.
    Maybe some more info here.

    thanks for that.....

    PS.

    Dont suppose you know what the story is with the adsl service from ADSLNOW.ie or ViaNetworks.ie

    Im signing up for adsl with eircom, but is it likely that the above will have better prices?/contention ratio? surely they're just resellers, or will they endevaur to go where eircom couldnt be bothered?


    Will give them a buzz tomorrow..... funny thing is that i already enquired bout adsl availablity with both via and adslnow and they said the line failed, but it passed with eircom....


    Stange eh!........
