I'm trying to limit the number of connections of a client (say 10.100.10.16) on a port (say 411) at 12 connections. I've enabled connection tracking and I've tryed lots of rules and all they give me is a headache. HELP!!! give me the exact line please :D

Note, that you can set limit only for TCP, you may use the third rule from this menu,

you need another rule right below it to drop everything else on that port.

As much I understand, that doesn't make sense. Now, can anyone give me a line that can limit the connection number of a client on a certain port?
