I want to use rsync under the control (ie. initiated from) the client
side, but with the bandwidth controlled by the server side. I can force
the bwlimit option on the command line executed on the server, but will
this make a difference given that the files are being sent from client to
server?
If not, is there some other way to limit this bandwidth inbound to the
server? I know that I can do this with tc, but I'm hoping for a more
rsync-ish (or ssh-ish, since this would be running over ssh) approach on
the assumption that this would be smarter (ie. avoiding dropping packets
(ie. "policing") to slow the client's sending).
Thanks...
Andrew
