Re: [OpenBD] CFTHROTTLE substitutes?

[Alan Holden]

Reverie Jason! I wound up with something psychotic like this: <cfthrottle action="" token="#CGI.REMOTE_ADDR#" hitthreshold="100" hittimeperiod="10000" />         <cfif CFTHROTTLE.throttle AND CFTHROTTLE.totalHits gt 90> ... More than the single example would be nice. There are a few blogs out there, but they just cite the same example. Thanks Matt! I was trying to avoid answers like Netscaler and fancy routers, etc. I do have an extra TeleNet 300hz rack server lying around (when the dot-com was failing, they started giving away needless hardware instead of bonuses!). But the thought of adding another box to the grid - and another night of OS configing - just to get a request meter seems exhausting. I can't help but think that there's hope for some obscure *nix server or firewall setting - and that I could leech off the prior research of another CF'er ;-] Al On 8/22/2011 11:47 AM, Matthew Woodward wrote: On Mon, Aug 22, 2011 at 11:44 AM, Alan Holden <alhol...@akh.com> wrote: Hardware solutions are out of the question, and I'd really like to avoid wholesale platform & server changes as well. Hardware solutions meaning an appliance, or hardware solutions meaning you can't even add another server in the mix if the software you'd run on it is free? To be more specific, would adding a Linux box running something like Nagios be out of the question? Does it have to all be on the same box as your web server? --  Matthew Woodward m...@mattwoodward.com http://blog.mattwoodward.com identi.ca / Twitter: @mpwoodward Please do not send me proprietary file formats such as Word, PowerPoint, etc. as attachments. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html -- official tag/function reference: http://openbd.org/manual/ mailing list - http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en -- official tag/function reference: http://openbd.org/manual/ mailing list - http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en
