I found this module called bwshare (http://www.topology.org/src/bwshare/README.html) that is supposed to limit bandwidth usage BUT i'm a newbie and I'm having problems installing it with Xampp.

Can anyone help me?

I'm stuck at this part :

It seems like you might have to run "autoconf" in the Apache top directory to remake "configure" from "configure.in".
But I found that this created an erroneous line as follows:

LTFLAGS="$LTFLAGS -export-dynamic"

If "autoconf" causes this line to appear in your "configure" file, you will have to remove it or comment it out.
I have no idea how this bug gets in there.

The parameter

--enable-bwshare

must be used with the "configure" command in the top-level Apache source directory (in addition to any other command line arguments you normally use) if you choose the `no' option in the config.m4 file.

looks like it might need to be built in while compileing apache. it is a sugestion though.

Dosent look like this module can run in windows, as it have only been tested with *nix machines, so maybe you should look into mod_bandwidth insteed.

mod_bandwidth works well with windows, and has been fully tested under windows. but my question is why do you need to limit bw?

mod_bandwidth is for Apache/1.3x and Apache/1.2x

And the Windows binary is for Apache/1.3.22
