Partitioning Bandwidth Using Mac OS X?

Posted by Cliff on Tuesday January 7, 2003 @05:26PM from the better-quality-of-service dept.

dasboy has this query: "I was wondering if anyone knew of away to partition bandwidth amongst a group of computers running Mac OS X? I have a [few Macintosh machines] at home all on the same LAN and all on the same Internet connection. One of these machines is used by my daughter when she's home from school. The biggest problems happen when she begins downloading large files (I'll let you guess what she downloads <grin!>). I was wondering if there are any cool BSDish ways of constricting the amount of bandwidth her computer uses?"

This is the 4th young girl I've heard about this week succumb to the evils of Richard Simmons videos. Which is her favorite? The "Disco Blast Off", or the "Best of Latin Buns Burning"?

Or is it....no....it couldn't be...."Getting Dirty with the 80s"? Oh, the humanity!

One solution is to say GET OFF THE DAMN COMPUTER!
Well, that's what my Dad would have done.
