I'm running Windows 2000 Advanced Server, and I am trying to Limit Bandwidth to each individual site. I know how to set the throttle for the webserver in general, but I need different bandwidths for each website. Please Help

You can throttle bandwidth in IIS 5.0 but it only throttles static pages and not dynamic pages (why that do this, I don't know).

If you open the properties page of a website in the IIS MMC, click on the "performance" tab. You will see "enable bandwidth throttling". Click it and put in your max speed.

That's it.

Hope it helps!

I suggest writing a script that will calculate the monthly usage through the logs and have it produce stats for each domain name and then you can see who went over etc. I don't think there is a way possible yet that you can do that with IIS.

If you're really worried, just unplog any eithernet cables and randomly cut copper wires. :)
