I don't use the bandwidth limiters. ;-) > Do we want to count certain IP ranges as local and not limit them, > or do we want to never limit mainport connections, or what? Which is the > best solution? My thought is that anything talking to mainport (or nodestatus) should never be limited artificially. This may break down in the pathological case where people use allowedHosts=* (e.g. for a public Freenet gateway). But I think *most* people are only going to allow LAN and loopback connections to mainport. I'd urge people who are serious about bandwidth shaping to look into their operating system's capabilities instead of relying on the applications to do the right thing. The OS is usually far more reliable in this area. -- Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody." greg at wooledge.org | - The Red Hot Chili Peppers http://wooledge.org/~greg/ | -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
