Hello, I help administer a FreeBSD machine that runs nat, dhcpd, mail and web servers for an organization with about 75 desktop clients. They have a 256k fractional T1. We have noticed the machine bogging down sometimes (people complaining of extremely slow web page loading, and when I ssh in, very slow response). Top shows less than 1% of CPU being used. This last time, it seems someone was ftp-ing a 100MB file, and when they terminated the transfer, everything was fast again. Is there anyway to prevent one client or process from hogging all that bandwidth? Joshua Holland.
