You may want to limit the number of concurrent visitors to your website to prevent server overload or for other reasons. If you need to limit the amount of concurrent surfers to your website, this can be easily set up. Open the htaccess file with a program such as Notepad and insert the following line of code:
MaxClients <Number of max clients>
Change <Number of max clients> to the maximum number of clients you want to allow access to your website.

This would not work for a domain/website. It is server wide only ;)
