I need a mod(I really need this)
that checks if a client to connected to the server goes through a specific route, if it does it stops them downloading any files but still allows them to connect or kicks them when they request a file.

I need this because my country Australia has very high bandwidth costs and i only want the internet connection used where neccerary(I have annother connection to a PEERing network which 70% of australian are connected to, where bandwidth is free)

You cannot stop people downloading content unless you stop them playing.
Im not even sure you can stop them playing untill after they have downloaded what they need :\

If you want to regulate content download then setup a content server with sv_downloadurl. Then setup a script on your webserver to traceroute the client ip before redirecting them to the correct files on your webserver. This is not failsafe, but it should be able to regulate about 95%+ of your content download.

For example:

sv_downloadurl "http://mycontentserver.com/hlds/index.php/"

Read the args after index.php in the script and then tracert client ip. You may need to tracert once then put the ip in a sql database to streamline the process since tracert can be slow at times.

The big problem is i want to keep my cpu useage down, its reserved for the game servers. So i do not want to run a webserver(im running windows2003).
I was thinking mybe some event scripts that(if you can on the event someone starts downloading something) use the SYSTEM plugin from mattie and run a program(i will write it) that traces the route to that client then if it goes over a certain route it then writes a cfg file that says kick that person then eventscripts will read that and then kick the person?

There a million of free webspace hosters out there!
Use one of them!

[sslice]

Yeah, it would be much easier to use a webhost from another location, such as a free webhost..

or are there any ideas on how to tell scrds to use 2 ips.

If you are using linux: Setup iptables to route the ips to one ip that your srcds attaches to.

If you are using windows: I am not sure, but route may work, or try something like this http://www.analogx.com/contents/down...rk/pmapper.htm (I haven't tried it, so I am not 100% sure if it works). w2k3's routing and remote access services might have some sort of ip routing for multihomed NICs.
