It's great server side LLTD app. Is there a client for LLTD under linux systems?

Thanks for the feedback! The link had obviously got damaged during a migration into new site code. I've fixed it up. I also had some trouble testing it because limits.h wasn't properly included. In the command steps I included one to fix that.

I went from top to bottom copying and pasting the commands and it worked pretty easily.

I also beautified the script code a little as that seemed to have been trashed in the migration too!

Any other feedback appreciated!

Excellent. Easy to build and stabilizes the samba connection very well, with Debian Lenny and Windows 7 on a 100Mb/s regular ethernet connection.

Before when I was transferring a file and listening to a FLAC from a shared folder on the debian box the audio would sometimes drop out, while the file transferred between 10 -13 MB/s. With LLTD I was uploading a torrent with rtorrent at 118KB/s (max for the line is 140), copying a 11gig file to Windoze while listening to Vivaldi with no interruptions at a solid 11MB/s, very little fluctuation in the rate.

Thanks.

N.B The neverfear wget download gets a 404 so I just nano'd and copy pasta'd the script from the guide.
