<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'"><BR>Hi All,</SPAN></P>
<P> </P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'">Quick question regarding iptables - I
have traffic shaping set up and need to change the rules below. I need to give
people accessing my website a LOWER priority than me accessing external sites.
I.E - requests coming into this box on port 80 need a lower priority than my
outbound requests on port 80.</SPAN></P>
<P> </P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'">I know i need to change one of the
following lines but not sure how iptables works out source and destination
ports.</SPAN></P>
<P> </P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'">Current ruleset gives ALL http traffic a
high priority...</SPAN></P>
<P> </P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'">iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -p tcp
-m tcp --dport 80 -j MARK --set-mark 0x5</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'">iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -p tcp
-m tcp --sport 80 -j MARK --set-mark 0x5</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Tahoma'">which line needs changing?</SPAN></P>
