Agreed, but there isn't anyway that I can fix the client but I can improve the server to work better with broken clients. > > it brings up another issue to.

That is limiting connections by IP address not user. Per IP limits are of little use if you have set them high enough to allow large groups of users behind single IPs in. Per user limits would mitigate the problem and at least keep an out-of-control client from affecting server performance. -- Kelsey Cummings - k...@corp.sonic.net sonic.net, inc.
