Questions[mod-cband](server)

I currently have a virtualhost within Apache that is using mod_cband and mod_rewrite. I am using mod_cband to limit the number of connections per remote user. When this limit is exceeded, it is supposed to return 503 Service Unavailable which is the mod_cband default.

If the limit is not exceeded then mod_rewrite should rewrite the URL according to the rules I have specified.

Unfortunately, mod_rewrite seems to take some sort of priority over mod_cband as the rewrite occurs even when the limit is exceeded and 503 Service Unavailable is never returned.

Is there anyway to force mod_cband to be applied before mod_rewrite? Config is as follows:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName a.domain.com
    ServerAdmin [email protected]

    CBandRemoteSpeed 1024 1 10

    RewriteEngine on
    # Some other rewrite rules.

    RewriteRule (.*) https://a.domain.com? [R]

    ...

</VirtualHost>

I run a server that hosts several small rails apps, and I want to track how much bandwidth each is using.

They are all running on Apache 2.2 and Passenger 3.

I used mod_cband for static sites, but this doesn't seem to work with passenger.

Is there a good way to track the bandwidth used by different apps? All I need is a breakdown of GB used - no graphs or hooks or API.

Thanks!

Is there a way to setup mod_cband to display cband-status for a specific vhost and for a specific user?

What I want to achieve is a status page for a client that if he opens for example: http://www.example.com/cband-status, then he will get a status page for HIS vhost only and not showing any other configurations.

Also how do I make Basic authentication for a certain user per vhost? (different users have access on different vhosts)
