|
|
All-
I have written a webapp on lighttpd that sends fairly large files, via HTTP's POST method, to my linode.
I'd like to learn about solutions that will throttle bandwidth on a per-connection basis. Any ideas?
thank you!

Do you want to rate limit traffic going to your linode or away from it?
It sounds like the traffic you want to reduce is going to your linode. It's a lot easier to do bandwidth limiting on the sending side. I don't believe iptables has any native support for bandwidth limiting.
If you can use another tool to do this the easiest way is rsync --bwlimit |
