I'm in the process of converting the computers on my home network from
standalone PCs to LTSP terminals.  Previously, I could limit the times
that my kids could access email, web and instant messaging thru a
combination of firewall rules and the squid proxy (based upon the IP
addresses of their computers).  Now that I'm booting the machines as
terminals, and they're logging into _my_ machine (the application
server), they have the same IP address as me.  This prevents me from
limiting their online times via the previous method.

Question #1: is there a way for me to limit the times during which they
can login via the LTSP terminals?

Question #2: is there a way to "boot them off" if they attempt to stay
logged in after a certain time (i.e. their bedtime)?

Question #3: Or, is there a simple way to limit the programs that they
can run during certain times (I could then allow them to stay "logged
in", but limit their use of the specific programs when they should be in
bed).

Thanks!
