HOW TO: mod_throttle

If you're running Linux, then you can do a lot, maybe even what you want, using the iptables firewall, netfilter. But it's quite complex; whole books have been written on it, and the forum is hardly the place to teach it :) .

Yikes! lol Whole books just on what I want to do with the throttling?

Now I am scared hehe

Somehow, I've clocked up 400G out of my 1000G bandwidth allowance - although this isn't reflected in the DA All Users bandwidth lists [or anywhere else that i've looked].

I think I'll stop them hotlinking first, and then work on the mod_bandwidth...

good news...

managed to implement mod_bandwidth and mod_limitconn to cut the leeching [concurrent connections] and speed of the downloads [capping by file size is the best - will add the toppermost bandwidth a site can reach too :D just in case] :)
