I've been playing with the example script here,
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/ADSL-Bandw...mentation.html.
I tweaked it a little (mainly available bandwidth), and stripped out
the inbound shaping as I don't have the inbound shaper module to hand.
I'm comfortable with iptables, so I used that to mark all the relevant
packets/conversations.

The relevant tweaks are as follows:

# Add leaf classes...
#
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:20 htb rate $[$RATEUP/2]kbit ceil ${RATEUP}kbit prio 0
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:21 htb rate $[$RATEUP/2/6]kbit ceil $ {RATEUP}kbit prio 1
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:22 htb rate $[$RATEUP/2/6]kbit ceil $ {RATEUP}kbit prio 2
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:23 htb rate $[$RATEUP/2/6]kbit ceil $ {RATEUP}kbit prio 3
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:24 htb rate $[$RATEUP/2/6]kbit ceil $ {RATEUP}kbit prio 4
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:25 htb rate $[$RATEUP/2/6]kbit ceil $ {RATEUP}kbit prio 5
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1:1 classid 1:26 htb rate $[$RATEUP/20]kbit ceil ${ RATEUP}kbit prio 6

The whole file is available at
http://www.roaima.co.uk/stuff/20080509/lartc-qos.sh should you want it.
But you WILL need to adjust it for your own requirements. I've not
configured anything past line 244 relating to the inbound shaping.
