Fw: Network Bandwidth control

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

What about putting the BT server on it's own hub/switch, and using x10 to
turn that hub/switch off, even for x minutes ?

Hi Guys





I have a small network at home with sbs2003 as the main server; I have
laptops and other pc's. One of these is used for bit torrent stuff and
as I would expect slows down the internet connection for the other
machines.



What I have to do at the moment in login to the machine via rdc and
pause the downloads so that I can then use other machines for browsing
and what I tend to do is forget to switch it back on. The other scenario
is when I am out an about I log into sbs via vpn this is of course very
slow. Until I rdc in and switch off the downloads.



What I am looking for is some software to control the flow it would be
nice if I could do it from the cmd line so I can set up simple icons.



Anyone any thoughts



Thanks





Regards,



Paul
