That’s why it doesn’t work – the above instructions are only valid for Apache 1.3. Mod_bandwidth does not work on Apache 2+, so you will have to look for another solution.

When I reboot it gives a error, I should of copied it. I have apache 2.0 if that matters.

When you say “apache just fails”, what do you mean? Does the process die?

Your comments page removed all the code that has in it. So I’m posting it without the now:

IfModule mod_bandwidth.c>
Directory “/home/master/public_html”>
BandWidthModule On
BandWidth all 5000000
BandWidthPulse 1000000
MaxConnection 10
/Directory>
/IfModule>

I tired to add this to the virtual host but apache just fails:

BandWidthModule On
BandWidthPulse 1000000
BandWidth all 8048576
LargeFileLimit 1024 65536
MaxConnection 10

I add this and apache loads but the bandwidth is not effected:

BandWidthModule On
BandWidth all 5000000
BandWidthPulse 1000000
MaxConnection 10

If you can help I would really appreciate it.

Is there a win32 binary distribution of apache 2 bandwidth throttling? If all I want is a total upload cap for the httpd process, would it be easier to use a 3rd party firewall utility with throttling?
