I am trying to use the following script to limit my passive ftp traffic to 35KBytes.
Problem is, it kill's the entire connection on that computer. The script is running on the same machine as the ftp server. I was hoping to limit the ftp traffic, and only the ftp traffic, leaving the computer.
It seems to limit everything, i tried transfering a file with samba and the whole computer came to a screeching halt.
Any words of wisdom?
#!/bin/bash #shaping passive ftp traffic
# mark the outbound passive ftp packets on ports 50000-51000
iptables -t mangle -D POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MYSHAPER-OUT 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
iptables -t mangle -F MYSHAPER-OUT 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
iptables -t mangle -X MYSHAPER-OUT 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
iptables -t mangle -N MYSHAPER-OUT iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MYSHAPER-OUT
iptables -t mangle -A MYSHAPER-OUT -p tcp --dport 50000:51000 -j MARK --set-mark 1
