That would be great, Mike.  I'm seeing more and more bandwidth being  
used with p2p that I haven't been able to control with pf.  The  
thought has entered my mind to change back to ipfw that I used for  
many years before changing to pf maybe 3 years ago.  I also found  
dummynet to be easy and practical to set up for both incoming and  
outgoing connections.  Something else I haven't figured out how to do  
the same with altq, if even possible.  In fact, if I am able to  
control p2p with pf I may not even need bidirectional bandwidth limits.

Thanks for sharing your very practical solution to a real world  
problem.  Have a great weekend.
