Re: Download Limit

Why would it still be possible to download a file?

The squid doesn't allow you to make connections to the web when you're on the blacklist in the case of using ACL's and it redirects to another page in the case of the redirector.

I have to admit that there are some flaws:
- if you are a few bytes next to the limit, you would be still able to do just 1 download (but that could be a large file) since you can only update on the base of requests that are _done_.
- i assume squid in a transparant proxy situation

Try to do it by controlling it from the router, if your router supports
QoS.

Maybe you could write a daemon that parses the access.log and counts the bytes used per ip-address. Once the bytes used per ip-address exceeds the limit set by you, you could add the ip-address to a kind of 'black list'.

Write a redirector that checks the blacklist. If the source-ip address is in the blacklist, redirect the user to a page showing 'bandwidth exceeded'. If the user is not in the blacklist, don't redirect the URL.

Or skip the redirector and use ACL's using the external black list file.

I'm just a newbie to squid so this might be bad practice...
