[squid-users] squid & qos

Somebody found a better solution for using squid in collaboration with
traffic control than wrr proxyremap? the scenario is a firewall running
squid and tc for 400 workstations (each one with their own htb class). The
problem is to get the squid connections to the outside shaped by the
workstation class that requested that page. Using tcp_outgoing_tos to mark
the packet isn't an option because the TOS/DSCP value is a byte, so, only
256 classes are allowed. Also, when you use that option only the outgoing
packets of the http connection to the outside will be marked with that
value, but not the incoming ones (where all the load is).

Any ideas, at least theorical ones?

Saludos,

Nahuel Greco.
