I have been having some issues with random visitors leeching excessive bandwidth, since the upgrade to Apache2. I used to use mod_throttle for 1.3, which allowed us to set a max bandwidth cap (not a speed cap) per IP address, but that is no longer supported for the newer versions of Apache.
Now, unable to find anything on my own, I must ask you guys, who are, I am sure, much more knowledgeable on the situation than me.
I have looked at mod_bw, mod_cband, etc, etc, but none of those offer the feature that I need (to cap PER IP/host), and most simply split the overall bandwidth (speed) to a certain amount per user, which is not what I want to do.
If you have any ideas on how I can do this, with some sort of apache mods, or a different method, please share
Thanks a million!
