This module allows web server administrators to limit the number of simultaneous downloads permitted from a single IP address.

How to install:

$> wget http://dominia.org/djao/limit/mod_limitipconn-0.04.tar.gz
$> tar xzvf mod_limitipconn-0.04.tar.gz


now you must find "apxs"

$> cd /
$> find -name apxs


remmember the path of that file (usually /usr/sbin/apxs).

Now, go back to the mod_limitipconn-0.04 folder

$> cd mod_limitipconn-0.04

Edit the MakeFile archive

$> vi makeFile

replace "APXS = apxs" with the appropriate path

APXS = /usr/sbin/apxs (in my case).

Save and exit

Go on...

$> make
$> make install


The module is now installed.

Edit your httpd.conf (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf).

Before:
Code:
#Start DirectAdmin Settings
Add:
Code:
<IfModule mod_limitipconn.c>
  <Location />
    MaxConnPerIP 5
    NoIPLimit image/*
  </Location>
</IfModule>

You can also add this lines in the virtual_host template in directadmin templates. And then modifi this limit for a single user.

Restart httpd
$> service httpd restart

#NoIPLimit image/
