Hello I have been searching for a solution to this, what I want to accomplish is the ability for me to define firewall rules that will limit the amount of connections to certain ports from the same source IP address, I looked into WIPFW but it is no longer supported and the newest build for x86 will not work on my x64 Windows server (after trying numerous amount of times and installing the new sources on Dummy Net IPFW).
An external firewall solution is not an option unfortunately, nor is the option to run a virtual machine running a Linux OS that would handle iptable rules on the server.
Is there any solutions that you know of that would be able to do the things I'm asking for and it being compatible with my current configuration and limitations?
I've seen a few questions that ask the same thing and they have received lackluster responses or no responses at all, surely there must be a solution to such a simple firewall feature?
