Is it possible to limit the download speed of an authenticated client using VSFTPD? I've been through the man page and neither the local or anon settings apply in this situation.
Regards. |

(STUPID) Possibly through a tcpd wrapper. Look into xinetd or inetd, and emerge vsftpd with tcpd support to allow that to work. Should create an xinetd service.
(/STUPID)
Update vsfptd if you haven't. See below:
From: man vsftpd.conf
