Excuse for this mail, but I am not exactly from computer field so get
easily scared with words like sustained and burst, can you tell me what
you mean by this,

> # 64 Kbps sustained; 12 KB initial burst (downloaded at full speed)


Does this mean that when say IP 192.168.1.99 starts browsing, first time
she will get speed of 12Kb but later it will be maximum of 64KB?

Also, will your last mail solution save me some bandwidth? What I
essentially want is retrict all the users (except 2) to use just 64KBps
between ALL of them. Is this right then?

Thanks a lot for the patience.
