Nope, as I mentioned, I've got the core decision-making code (and the rate-limiting theory) written, but I'm just starting to put together an apache module around it so it can actually be used with the apache server. I hope to have a basic prototype reasonably soon, tho, if I don't run into big problems figuring out how to write the apache code. It may be a bit longer before it supports all the options I mentioned in my description. I'll let people know when I have something people might actually want to use :) -alex > On Thu, Aug 29, 2002 at 08:06:45AM -0700, Ian Holsman wrote: > > your trying to limit traffic based on what kind of request/request > > path > > it has ? > > Yes, actually based on vhost, URI, directory, file type, size, user, > time of day, etc, etc.. pretty much anything you can think of.
