Can anyone point me to some instructions or .pkg file that I can install on a RaQ4i that will allow me to limit bandwidth for namebased virtual sites?

mod_throttle will let you view and put a limit on web traffic.

Can you tell me what the variables need to be set to for the RaQ4 and how to install it on the server? I'm new to this, so any help is appreciated!

What's the matter inoverse?

Rackshack spanking your hand because you advertise "Unmonitored" bandwidth on all you accounts?

Now thats funny. I though you were joking. A host advertising "Unmonitored" bandwidth looking for bandwidth monitoring/limiting software. :cartman:

well, it kind of makes sense does it not? I mean right now I have no way to monitor the bandwidth, so I advertise unmonitored. I am looking for bandwidth limiting software so I can limit the bandwidth. I don't know why that doesn't make sense.

It doesn't not make sense. It makes perfect sense. You're saying that rackshack doesn't provide you with a monitoring service.

If you have a ded. server, that's perfectly ok. However, to keep them from raping you in bandwidth costs, you do need to keep an eye on your resold accounts. Understandable by anyone with IQ >Shang.

But if I were a customer, I would not be happy to see my unmonitored account turn into a limited bandwidth account. Be careful about how you implement this, it could bite you in the pocketbook.
