Topic: monthly traffic limit!! help! help!
Hello to everybody!
i'm testing mysecureshell to implement it within my vps to offer file transfer solutions for my clients.
It is very good!,but i have difficult to find a solutions to manage an amount of traffic usage monthly.
i have setup 4 master clients, everyone with 30 sub clients managed with group and permission on sub users folders like this:
/home/chroot/MASTER-CLIENT
and users:
/home/chroot/MASTER-CLIENT/subuser1
/home/chroot/MASTER-CLIENT/subuser2
/home/chroot/MASTER-CLIENT/subuser3
etc........
with this way it works fine and all subclients can see only the own directory and MASTER-CLIENT can see all files and folders of all clients.
Now, i have some problems to manage a monthly bandwidth limits for fixed amount of traffic.
i have a vps with 1000 GB of data monthly and need to limit traffic usage from users.
Mysecureshell have only a bandwidth velocity for upload and download for global configuration and for each user/connection but there is not a way to setup a limit amount of data that users can transfer within a fixed time of days or months.
I have look for firewall ip based management, but with this solutions, i can manage only connection with fixed ip, but not users that have a dynamic ip's..
At the moment i manage the total amount of transfer with a limit setup of bandwidth on a 30 days to limit the total bandwdth
and avoid to go out the 1000GB at months.but this is a very bad management of data.
There is a way to manage the monthly traffic limit for a group of users with the sftp_config file?!
This is very most important for intensive use!!!
Waiting.

Josef.
