I'm living at a boarding school and share internet to my colleagues.
As people need filesharing but running several amules on one ip and limited bandwidt makes no sense. so i'm sharing the amule via vnc.
On daytime we set the limits low so we can surf, but at night we want it to download.
Unfortunatly some people don't sleep to well at night and set the limits at low, sleep off in front of their screens and don't put the rates back at high again.
This results in everlasting downloads...
My question is:
Is there a way for a program with root priorities to periodically set the rates to the desired levels. maybe much like a trainer for games which gives infinite health
or is there anything similar to dcop out there to script macros for guis
thx in advance
