Finding alot of ancient stuff on Google, but they all seem to revolve
around 
ipfw, which I believe isn't so heavily recommended anymore?

Can someone point me to a doc that talks about bandwidth throttling
using, I'm 
guessing, pf, is the current?  Under FreeBSD 6.x?

Basically, what I want to do is leave everything open, but throttle one 
specific IP ...

Thanks ...

I think this is what you're looking for.  Specifically, using ALTQ in
conjunction with PF.
