Is there a way to limit the upload bandwidth of apache server?

[GideonT]

My linux box as a host of apache web server is connected to my home network. I don't want to be disturbed when someone is downloading... at least leave me a partial of bandwidth for me to browse the web. So is there a way to limit the upload bandwidth of the server? I want to set the limit say... 20kb/sec only.

If i remember there's either mod_bandwith or mod_limit, see the apache docs for listing of all the mods that come with it...sorry not much help here but i tried :) .

Any one has the experience of installing the mod_throttle.tar.gz v1.0 module? It's installation istruction basically nothing... anyone has a clue how to "Add throttle" to Makefile?

Instructions are the following:

1. Go to the Apache src directory.
2. Unzip and untar the archive. It puts itself into the modules directory.
3. Add "throttle" to modules/Makefile
4. Add "modules/throttle/mod_throttle.o" to the list of modules in Configuration.
5. Run Configure.
6. Re-install.
7. Be happy.
