I need to simulate slow download from FTP Server. My idea is to build a simple FTP server and then control the bandwidth for downloader.
Indy 7 has FTP server component, but I dont know how to add bandwidth control.
Do you know how to achieve this?
Thanks.

You can set up a linux server with proftpd as ftp server and then limit the bandwidth with linux build in tools. Of course you limit sending on the linux server.
