Description:



Netfirms Web Hosting for Small Business

I run a large ADULT forum using phpbb at http://www.netsexiest.com
I would like a means to throttle downloads for users.
I already have mod_bw installed and working so thats not what I am after :)
What I would like is a script that integrates with my site that can check to see
if a user is "logged in" via a .htpasswd file. This file would have usernames
and passes that would be different to their phpbb username and pass. Not quite
sure what the best way to handle this is... maybe we dont need any
integration...
If the user is logged in then their download speed is not limited. If they are
not, then they are throttled to a specified value.
What I am wanting to achieve is to be able to charge users to download. I can
handle this via a thrid party billing company that will keep the .htpasswd file
updated based on the users subscription status.
Probably the best scripts to handle OS side are: http://cband.linux.pl/ and
http://www.ivn.cl/apache/ (both Apache 2 compliant). Another way of doing it
might be to use php to throttle how fast the file is pushed to the user. Two
scripts are: http://www.phpnerds.com/article/speed-limiting-file-downloads and
http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread341922.html
Should take into account IP too. So if a user is downloading then their whole
bandwidth is throttled to say 50k. eg if they open up 10 files then maybe they
only get 5 k per file. As opposed to downloading 10 files all at 50k.
Anyway - PM me your approach if you think you can achieve what I want.
Payment via paypal, scriptlance escrow, or credit card.
