Would like to see it work inside a <Directory> directive.
Such as: <directory c:/apache/htdocs/photographers/freephotos/> LimitConnect 2 </directory> This would limit the user to (2) concurrent connections in that directory, this restricting them from downloading more than 2 binaries (Assuming that indexing is on... Etc.). Also with that, the ability to give a custom error message when limit is exceeded. # TOO MANY CONCURRENT CONNECTIONS ErrorDocument ??? /errormsg/???.htm >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: N/A >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
