Counting FTP traffic

[BuGoFf]

I have a user with multiple domains configured on his account, there are 2 of that domains that are only used for FTP access.

So i configured these 2 domains with a traffic limit of 5GB, the problem is the FTP traffic is not counted into the traffic of this domain. So whenever they reach there limit of 5GB it doesn't counts.

Is there a way to fix this, so whenever they reach 5GB FTP traffic they are not allowed to do more traffic?

Hello,

Unfortunately, ftp traffic is only counted against the User, and not his domains. The usage will be part of the User's totals, but won't show up in the usage per domain, so the "domain limit" will not have any effect with regards to ftp traffic.

In this case, your only real solution (if the limit is required) would be to add those ftp domains under their own DA user account so their usage can be checked against that new User's limits.
