More about bandwidth!

[jeffery]

I want to ask if the user's bandwidth will be updated per month or ....?

since they will be suspended when the limit exceeded!

I want to have their account automatically unsuspended after another month...!

I'm not sure, but I *think* any users suspended for exceeding their bandwidth limit will be unsuspended when bandwidth is reset (on the 1st of any month).

[jeffery]

The bandwidth will be reset on the first day of the month?

Ha, I just know this~

Thanks for your notice~! :D

Let me try to suspend an user and wait for 1 March~

[l0rdphi1]

Or wait for someone more knowledgeable :D

Though, go a head, if you like, sure won't hurt anything :)

Don't worry~
I will create a dummy account to test it!~

I am not a monster! :D

Ah yes, good question. That took me quite a bit of tinkering to get the way I wanted :). Here's how it works:

If a users goes over his bandwidth limit, he's suspended.
If a Reseller suspends a user he's suspended (duh).

now, for the fun part.

If the user was suspended because of banwidth, he'll be unsusepended the when everything is reset at the beginning of the month.
If the user was suspended by the Reseller, then it's assumed that the Reseller wants him suspended, so he'll stay suspended until the Reseller unsuspends him.

For any technical people, the "account=ON" value in the user.conf files is used to figure out if the Reseller did it, or the bandwidth did it. If the Reseller did it, it will be set to OFF, and the reset won't unsuspend the account.
