Howdy all.

Is there a config flag in the ftpaccess file to limit an anonymous user to down load a certain amount of bytes of data ? Concern is a person trying to create a denial of service scenario by filling up a filesystem. I dont have it on its own partition, and wont be able to for a bit. Will disk quota's have to do the trick, will it work for user ftp ? I would assume it would. 

Any feedback would be welcome.
Thanks in advance.
