The keyword is bandwidth management and the Linux Kernel has direct support of it. I dealed with this long time ago and have forgotten much about that but there is a great online book that covers the topic extensively. It's called

• Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control.

To get a foretaste of what you want to achieve take a look at

• Chapter 9. Queueing Disciplines for Bandwidth Management.

Perhaps there are (software) servers which support bandwidth control directly!?

Supplement:

• In the pureftpd FAQ it is explained how to enable bandwidth limitation on the system level. On the first sight it seems to be applicable to other ftp servers as well.

• there is another freely available book called

  How to Accelerate Your Internet: A Practical Guide to Bandwidth Management and Optimisation Using Open Source Software

  that deals with the topic. At first glance it seems to worth a look.
