For me traffic management means to ensure that some really important sites always have enough bandwith and therefore first limiting bandwith for mail, ftp and so on.Second point is to make sure that even if there is a DoS-attack are something like this that uses all available bandwith that i can make sure to have a usabel SSH-Connection to the hosts (or in general: make sure that there is IN EVERY SITUATION enough bandwith for the netmanagement). ------------------------------------------------ BS Web Services Roedingsmarkt 14 20459 Hamburg Germany info at bsmail.de www.bsws.de fon: +49 40 3750357-0 fax: +49 40 3750357-5 PLEASE USE EMAIL WHERE POSSIBLE Mark Lastdrager To: henning.brauer at bsmail.de <mark at pine.nl cc: > Subject: Re: IP assignment for virtual webhosting 11.05.00 13:41 At Thu, 11 May 2000, henning.brauer at bsmail.de wrote: >Yes, that exactly the way we do it.

There is something called 'mod_throttle' (if a remember well) for Apache, but I don't think customers are very interested in paying a flat fee for a virthost instead of being fast all the time and paying per MB.
