Author Limiting connections per IP

Hi,

I would like to limit the amount of connections that a client can make on a
per IP basis , I have exceptions that I would like to add to this rule also
, could anyone please tell me which mod I need and the basic config.
Can this be done in apache or do I need to use a TCPwrapper instead?

Apache 2.0.48

Thanks!
Zammo

I can't answer your question directly but if you are trying
to limit downloads then maybe you could link them to a stand alone
ftp server like I do. The client would never know the difference and you
could limit max connection by IP, limit bandwidth, limit total connections by IP
and much more.
