Have you looked at mod_bandwidth.c for apache? I believe it is compiled as
a DSO for apache in RH 6.0 and 6.1. You will need to add entries for it in
httpd.conf to load the module and set the bandwidth restrictions. For info
on the mod_bandwidth module, go to
ftp://ftp.cohprog.com/pub/apache/module/1.3.0/
