    Hello, it seems that while it is possible to throttle the bandwidth and
    to limit the number of concurrent connections to a website in IIS6 /
    Server 2003 it is not possible to restrict number of connections by an
    IP address.

    You can remove an IP address' access completely, but you cannot tell it
    to allow IPs to only connect a certain number of times an hour / minute
    etc.

    So what if you have one or a few IP addresses that are flooding your
    server with requests? How do you deal with that kind of traffic?

    It would be great to be able to set it up so the website looks at how
    many times any given IP accessed its pages in an hour and said "Hey,
    you've been here too much, go away now"

    Any possibilities?

    TIA
