Hello to all,

I've got some guests that are really beginning to become bandwidth hogs.
Some of them are file mirrors, some of them are just simple ftp backup
servers.

I'd like to try ebtables with my public bridges to try and tame things a
bit, and was wondering if anyone has some snippets or scripts they would
like to share. 

I'm new to ebtables, and am finding it a little bit of a leap from my
familiar ground (iptables). The servers I need to adjust are in
production, so my hope is to fully understand it prior to going in and
effecting changes. 

I love to learn by example ... so if anyone has something (even trivial)
using ebtables to help limit guests, I'd love to take a look at it if
you don't mind sharing :) All of my guests have static macs.

Thanks in advance!

Best,
--Tim
