Thanks for your interest. Restriction can be for a file or a total amount of size of the files that wants to be downloaded for a session. It is not important for us to be broken. The main aim of us is to restrict users to download all files that they can for some reason of security. It can be such a way that if anybody wants to download files above some quota , if the system can warn me about it, it is also a solution for us. Can we really use squid instead of Apache? I could not understand your suggestion for squid Best

<direct reply originally - sorry> Your original query was when a user connected to an Apache server. It was never made clear if this Apache server belonged to you or if it was just a random Apache server out there... It now seems that it's 'your' Apache server and you wish to restrict sessions to a certain amount of data allowed to be transferred before the session is forcibly ended? It seems a very odd request. What's to stop someone simply opening another browser session? Or to run two browsers? I don't think what you're trying to do is: a) possible b) providing any security benefit whatsoever (and probably in reverse order) Jon

Hello When I connect to a server (that is running apache on it ) and want to download a file from this server , is it possible to restrict the file size or limit file size of the downloaded file that logged in for a user with his own password. Is there anybody in this group have any idea about this item Thanks

Presumably you don't administer the Apache server. If you restrict the allowed file size to be downloaded the file that is downloaded is broken. Is that what you want? Seems a weird request to me.

As far as I'm aware you can't restrict a single file size for a user (although you can obviously use quotas). For your specific needs about connecting to an Apache web server you might want to consider looking at squid as a proxy cache and see if it can have a maximum file size. http://www..squid-cache.org
