[Novices] tc command not found

[Ashling O'Driscoll]

Hi all,

Please bare with me if I ask really stupid questions but Linux has
come as a major shock to my brain washed Windows mind! Ok I have two
issues really:

1) I am trying to set traffic shaping and have installed the iproute2
package (from cd using the Suse Control Center facility). I thought
that would install all necessary traffic shaping functionality but
apparently not.

When i tried to run my first traffic shaping command i.e.
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 htb, I got the error:

bash: tc: command not found

Can anyone tell me why this is?

2) Then on a different linux pc running Suse, I was trying to enable
QoS in the kernel. According to  instruction i found on the Internet
i should do:

cd /usr/src/linux and then 'make menuconfig', However the directory
'linux' does not exist. Where would I get this from and how would I
install it ?

Thanks again for your patience and help,
Aisling.
