The support for http rate limit is documented in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/configuration-index.gz. I guess a entry to the man-page would be good as well. Patches against the xml file are very welcome! $ apt-get update -o Acquire::http::Dl-Limit=7 should limit the download rate to 7kb per second. Currently this is only supported for http, but ftp shouldn't be too hard to add. Cheers, Michael -- Linux is not The Answer. Yes is the answer.
