I like the load-limiting feature, but wish it could be specified on a
per-{site,net,subnet} basis. Has anyone done this? It would involve
a bit of code restructuring.
For now, I just duplicated some code with a hard-wired check on the
address ("does it end with bbn.com"?)...

They way I do it here is to look to see if the incoming connection is
xfer only, and if so do a load check. I also use the domain-matching
nntp_access file, so local domains are exempt (since they aren't xfer
only). This allows local users to read/post, but our feeds are
stifled if we're too busy.
