max simultaneous connections per client IP

[Jeroen Ooms]

I posted the question below a couple of weeks ago, but unfortunately there
wasn't a single answer. I would still be very interested to hear if this
would be possible, or if there is an alternative approach in which varnish
can to some extend help me prevent a dos from a single user. Thank you very
much.
