[Repost] Limiting connections to CVS
Reposting to list, as I was locked out of -questions over the weekend, and I don't know if I got any replies. - I read somewhere that they were able to limit CVS pserver connections to 4 a minute. I would like to do something similar. I currently have a firewall/nat box running 4.9-RELEASE-p1, using ipf. The CVS server is behind the firewall/nat box running on 4.9-RELEASE-p1. Thanks for any insight you may provide... ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you're running CVS pserver out of inetd, which I believe is the usual practice, then you can limit the total number of simultaneous connections to a service or the maximum rate at which a service may be invoked: either of those can apply to connections from one specific IP address or to all connections. See inetd.conf(5), but the syntax you want is something like: cvspserver stream tcp nowait/0/4 root/usr/bin/cvscvs --allow-root=/your/cvsroot/here pserver Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
