General :: Limiting Concurrent FTP Connections - Less Than 10?
Feb 1, 2011
FTP servers I use frequently have imposed a simultaneous connections limit, usually 5-10 at the time. It was no problem under Windows, since Windows artificially limits allowed FTP connections to ~10 as far as I know. But it is a problem under Linux very much since I cannot find how to limit them :/ So far I used these clients: Native FTP client (Places -> Connect to FTP server). No apparent way to limit connections.
FileZilla. Under particular server settings you can limit number of simultaneous connections. Also you can do that globally in Edit -> Preferences -> Transfers. Problem is, it doesn't work, I still keep getting the 530 Sorry the maximum number of clients (10) for this user are already connected. And netstat shows quite a few simultaneous FileZilla connections no matter that I limited them to 1 both in global and local settings.
NCFTPPUT. 10 successful uploads and hi 530. Total Commander under Wine. Same. NetBeans IDE integrated ftp. Same. Some other crapy FTP clients which names I already forgot. Same. OS is Ubuntu 10.04 So, is there any way to force any of these FTP clients to use less than 10 concurrent connections?
I have a very simple question .I need to tune Kernel paramaters in RHEL 5 server to increase the number of concurrent connections what is the command to do this .How do i know the defaults and the maximum value i can raise this to.
How do I find the maximum number of concurrent connections (in any state)? I'm running RHEL5 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5. Also, does tcp auto tune affect the number of concurrent connections or is it mostly used for dynamic buffer size allocation?
apache virtual host to limit the concurrent connections of virtual hosts? Taking into account the host of each virtual user's home directory can also have more than one subdirectory, which should be restricted to a subdirectory. Is beyond the control of the operation of these sites in a subdirectory. Best local restrictions or limitations to the overall situation.
I'm running Windows 7 in VMPlayer under Linux. I made some changes to Windows 7 to allow it to have two people logged in at the same time. However when I do this the sound lags behind on the host machine.
Is there a different version of Windows where I am less likely to have this problem?
I'm looking for a way to store an encrypted filesystem on rsync.net which can be mounted and used by multiple clients concurrently - I've considered and experimented with many different ideas, including code...
but all of them are leading me to what looks like a fundamental theoretical problem: a filesystem with concurrent access needs someone to manage it, and who's going to manage it if I can't trust the server? Or refuse on principle to trust the server? There would need to be some trusted entity communicating with every client and making decisions to keep the filesystem and/or block device consistent, right?
Is my understanding correct, or is there any way of achieving what I'm trying to do?
have a problem with my network-manager in ubuntu 10.10.when I dial one of my vpn connections, my other vpn connections be disabled and I can't use them!I tried to restart network-manager and gnome-panel, but it does't seem to solve this problem.
I'm using Ubuntu 11.04. I'm running processes that repeatedly spawn Firefox browsers with Flash embedded in the pages. Occasionally the Flash processes (npviewer.bin) spin off and use almost all the CPU power. How can I limit the total CPU usage of all the Flash pieces to no more than 30% of CPU?
Is there any good tool in GNU/Linux that copy files like cp, but also shows progress and limits speed (and changes limit without interruption) like pv?
Also rsync -aP source_directory /destionation/directory/, but this shows progress bars individually and can't change rate after started. Or may be I should just write a wrapper for pv/cpio? Done.
I just created new user account, but the new user is able to access all the directories structure (including other's home directories).I'd like to limit the user to access ONLY his home directory (and nothing "above"). How do I do this?
I have a dual core processor and would really like to take full advantage from it. I'm pretty sure that only one core is being used when booting and I would like ti know if this is true for the rest of the laptop usage.Furthermore, I tried to follow a tutorial in order to edit/etc/init.d/rc*****Tutorial indicated that one could get the concurrency by changing the value CONCURRENCY=none to CONCURRENCY=shell however the file clearly says that "shell" is not a valid option, so I made no change
I've got a lamp solution deployed that I didn't write but I do have root access to the server. What might be the best way to determine the number of concurrent users accessing this web app throughout the day?
More of a "Knowledge" question... Is their a limit to the number of reads a single file can take? Say for example I have a file named config.xml in an htdocs directory and a XMLReader function from PHP reads some value(s) out of this file for every connection of Apache or NGinx. Now suppose my site receives a gigantic spike in traffic (but Apache stays opertational through it all)... Is their a point at which the underlying system would simply not be able to open+read config.xml anymore??
I am working on an epoll version of an echoserver that I am porting from a multithreaded version I wrote.What it should do: The server should get a connection from a client > say x client connected > print x message from said client. What it is doing: The server looks like it is only accepting one connection at a time, and any other clients are queued. When the queue is empty it looks like the program is aborting with a SIGABRT. EDIT:// fixed the program exiting in the close function. Still one client at a time
Is it fair to say that connLimit and hashlimit are very similiar on Linux i.e. while hashlimit caters to limits for groups of ports, they both set the connection rate limit per host? How in IPTables, do I configure a policy that limits connections on a port that encapsulates the total sum of all connections from all hosts? i.e. I do not want to allow more than 6000conn/minute for port range that is the sum of all connecting hosts?
I recently installed Fedora 15 now, and during installation I set the internet connection manually, then did update and after reboot, the internet connection settings have been removed. Now I can not set because the network connection to the Internet Connection is inactive. I mention that before the update was functional internet connection.
I currently have a RHEL 5.4 software development server. A lot of my developers are using windows desktops and they need to run interactive sessions on the server. I need to support between 4-6 concurrent users on the server. I tried doing this with VNC but I was never able to set that up for more than one user at a time.
I am trying run audio conversion on my server that I want limited to a certain number of processes based on process name. I am using the following script but it isnt limiting the number of job like I want it to.
Code: #!/bin/bash $num_jobs = 13 while [ $(ps -A | grep -v grep | grep -c pacpl) -ge $num_jobs ] do sleep 1
I am using ssh server to connect to my Ubuntu desktop. I opened the file sshd_config and change my port number of the server.I want to put a limit on the number of clients in the ssh server.
I have 2 ISP where give me IP Public with ISP A (/29) and ISP B (/28). So, I connect this two ISP to unmanaged switch. And from that switch, I take one cable connected to eth0 on the server. (Note : My server have 2 dev ethernet, eth0 and eth1). eth1 will go to the Switch which will go to the LAN.
My Question is : 1. Is this possible to make bandwith control on the gateway server with mode separating International bandwith and local bandwith (my country bandwith)? ie, for my Mail Server I will give the "intl bandwith" only 512 kpbs and for local bandwith with 1Mbps. What a software can I use for this model ?
2. Which model I should to used, with NAT or with Bridging router? That's all for now..
You may have seen some other posts by me about my final year college project. Im implementing a web based network management website. Iv got a lot of the functionality working at this stage but one part is allocating bandwidth.
Iv got an eircom 3mb broadband connection and I want to be able to split this between users. At the moment I only have my desktop and laptop on the network. Im looking for advice on how i can allocate bandwidth with iptables and/or the tc tool in ubuntu.
My website is on an ubuntu virtual machine and written in php. Whatever about running the iptables and tc commands from php I still need to figure out the actual commands i need to use in the first place.
I'd like to discourage the SSH bots that try to log into my system (CentOSv5), and among other things, I've changed my SSH port to someting other than 22. As well, I've been playing around with the idea of some iptables rules (note port 22 is used here as example): Code: # Allow SSH with a rate limit iptables -A INPUT -i ppp0 -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -m hashlimit --hashlimit 15/hour --hashlimit-burst 3 --hashlimit-htable-expire 600000 --hashlimit-mode srcip --hashlimit-name ssh -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -i ppp0 -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -j LOG --log-prefix "[DROPPED SSH]: " iptables -A INPUT -i ppp0 -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -j DROP I am *NOT* an iptables expert. What do you all think about the above code snip?
So: On the VPS / Dedicated Server Linux wich 3 users created. How can I limit bandwidth each in a separate? For example first user speed 1 MB. 5 MB second and third 10 MB. Expect some clear answers. Regards, Silviu!
I run Debian 64-bit. I host GameServers on my machine. Yesterday, some corrupt files or error in configurations of one of the game-servers caused my whole system to destabilize. On checking, I saw one of the Gameserver's console giving Net_sendpacket spam errors. I disabled that server and things were fine then. It used up more than 100GB of my bandwidth in just 12 hours.
I deleted the server and copied all the files over again to fix that error. Now I want a prevention to this, if just in case it happens again. I want to limit a sub-user's bandwidth in Linux. Like if I want a user only to use 10GB bandwidth per month + not more than 5MB/second. Is there any way to do it?
This is are magic file who kill 20 linux nodes today and.. of course i want to ask - What i can do for limiting size of nscd.log file? i try to find help in man files: nscd and nscd.conf - but nothing about log size. (just paranoia mode with auto restarting.. but this sounds ugly. i need just limit log file size)
I have a teenage daughter that understands Ubuntu, but not so much the terminal, and she does not know the superuser password. Unfortunately, she regularly goes on the Internet during the nighttime and in the early morning. What I am attempting to do is prevent anyone from going onto the Internet during the night (11 PM - 5:30 AM) unless they know the superuser password or a fair bit about the terminal.
I have already tried some commands, however all of them can be bypassed by restarting the computer. ex. sudo ifconfig eth0 down
For additional information on my Internet:
My Internet connection is relatively slow, so I would prefer if the solution does not hinder it any further. It is slow because there is no high-speed in my area, and I am forced to use Xplorenet -> "Fixed Wireless". I do not have a router.
I have a script that basically takes a list of IP addresses, and pings them to tell me if each device (Access Point) is online or not. The problem with that is, the list contains about a hundred addresses. Making the problem worse is the fact that using a single ICMP packet per device is not an option since, at certain times of the day, the network is too congested to guarantee that a single ICMP packet won't be dropped, despite the device being up and running. That means I need to send multiple pings per device for about a hundred devices. As you can imagine, doing this sequentially takes a while.
What I want to do is make my script open other threads in the background to ping multiple devices in parallel. The problem with that is - if I simply make each ping command run in parallel, soon there are a hundred background tasks, one for each address, and that consumes a lot of CPU (CPU hits 100% and stays there till the script is done). Is there a way I can make about 10 threads run at a time, and any other threads will queue until a spot opens up for them? Kind of like the token bucket, except when there aren't enough tokens, the main script waits until it can launch more background threads that ping the next addresses on the list.
