This is something I would GREATLY love to have. Right now I have a number of remote locations with only a T1 connection. I have a daytime schedule of 7000 bytes/s and night schedule of around 1.25MB/s. When I look at the utilization of my machines in nethogs (Linux) I see MULTIPLE download threads running. Each one caps at or near where I set the speed limit, but that speed limit is pointless if the total bandwidth being used is higher than my limit. Every morning I have to reboot my repositories because it saturates my router and nothing else will run. I have set the speed limits much slower, but it seems KACE will just spin up more threads!! I looked at one of the repositories one morning and it had 52+ threads running....all at the speed I set.
PLEASE PLEASE fix this! The speed limits in the repository schedule are bogus!

I like this idea. What I have been using is old desktop that we have replaced and installed Ubuntu server on them. I lock them down and let them sit. No GUI so no need for a mouse and keyboard. I SSH into them if I need to check on them.
I am in total agreement. Right now the only way to give the ability to run those task chains is by granting access to a lot of things I wanted to keep locked down.
