Traffic shaping... don't understand the instructions!

Hi!

Can anyone point me to a simple HOWTO on shapecfg or CBQ/HTB or any other 
tool which does the same thing? I've been trying to do something very 
simple on a system with 4 100Mbps Ethernet ports:

  * Limit eth1 to 128 Kbps.
  * Limit eth2 to 256 Kbps.
  * Limit eth3 to 128 Kbps.
  * Limit eth4 to 320 Kbps.

This is total speed in any direction (say, 128 in and 128 out), no 
prioritization whatsoever... just a simple speed limit. I've read the LARTC 
in its entirety, read Ow Mun Heng's HOWTO, and read the README docs on my 
system re shapecfg. Still no dice... must just be dense of my part. I see 
lots of theory, but little 1-2-3 cookbook style instructions.

Any clues how to get this done?
