I've been hit by guys who simply exhausted the maximum number of processes I configured with Apache. What limits do you usually have? This was effectively a DoS against all other users. Whether intentionally or by accident, I can't say right now, but all non-forking servers I'm aware of have a much slower memory consumption rate. > PF can handle rate limit pretty well, just increase your table size if > you reach the limit of them and be aggressive optimization: Yes.

I don't want to generally deny, or slow down, IE users of the site (I can't), but only want to deny them range requests. I didn't find a knob in Apache to do this. If anyone else does, I'm still interested. Best, --Toni++
