So I would like to hear some ideas on how we could use FreeBSD or any other BSD to limit bandwidth per customer( say one customer (with root access) per server ) I attended BSDCan 2008 in Canada this may, and I asked a few of the pfsense devlopers this exact question it was meet with limited feedback. I guess what I would like to know is What is the limitation of what we can achieve with FreeBSD would it be appropriate given the topic to cross post this to misc@openbsd.org?
