73 Linux has very advanced Routing
, filtering
and traffic shaping options
.
74 This site attempts to document how to configure
and use these features

124 It appears that the topic of our HOWTO is getting popular
, so we decided to
125 start a mailinglist dedicated to discussions about advanced routing
&
;
128 The advent of the Linux Advanced Routing
&
; Traffic Control
list also
129 means that questions asked privately will no longer be answered
, as these
130 answers benefit only single users
. Asking questions on the
list is far more
131 net
-friendly
. So
if you want to ask us a question
, <a
132 href
=http
://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc>subscribe to the
133 mailinglist
</a
>, and ask it
! An
<a
134 href
=http
://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/>archive</a> is also available,
135 and google has picked it up
as well
.
137 <font color
=#ff0000>Please note that due to excessive spam the list has
138 become
'members only' - so please
<a
139 href
=http
://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc>subscribe</a> first!</font>
140 The moderator will not approve postings from non
-subscribed addresses
as he
141 is not available at all times
. If you just want to post
, and not receive
142 mail
, you can indicate this on the Mailman mailinglist management page
.

199 This HOWTO is intended to be very much a <a
200 href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/">Bazaar</a> style development. If it
202 were to be any more open, bits would fall out.
204 A CVS tree is available. try this:
206 $ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anon@outpost.ds9a.nl:/var/cvsroot
208 CVS password: [enter 'cvs
' (without 's
)]

215 If you made changes
and want to contribute them
, run
'cvs -z3 diff -uBb',
216 and mail the output to
<a href
=mailto
:howto@ds9a

>howto@ds9a

</a
>, we
217 can then integrate it easily
. Thanks
! Please make sure that you edit the
218 .db file
, by the way
, the other files are generated from that one
.
220 The idea is that this HOWTO will be a cooperative effort
, much like the
