Really? I couldn't find it in the yum repos.
Yes really, see below...

It's not a package on it's own. It's in the iproute2 package, for more information see the following man pages: tc(8), tc-cbq(8), tc-htb(8), tc-sfq(8), tc-red(8), tc-tbf(8), tc-pfifo(8), tc-bfifo(8), tc-pfifo_fast(8), tc-filters(8)
I've never used shapecfg, but I can assume that it's only a utility for setting up CBQ-based traffic shaping... cbq.init and htb.init will do the same...
but i'd highly recommend using HTB instead.
Ok, thanks. I'm off to freshmeat.
Save the butchery for later, goto http://sourceforge.net/projects/htbinit/ http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/ (very technical, but intersting) http://lartc.org/howto (a definite must!!!)
If you want to use CBQ, you can the cbq.init script from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cbqinit/ and I'd also recommend having a look at http://lartc.org
Again, thanks.
Always a pleasure to help some bandwidth get into shape
