Hi Frank,
Thanks for your suggestion. I just need a few pointers, like I said my
scripting leaves a lot to desire.
Please, please help me with a few lines for starting the script.
I know I need to look at:
1. is the user logged on
2. how long is the user logged on for, how much time is left
3. if the user is idle for ten(10) minitues, logoff
4. When time is up logoff
Thanks again
Rudolf

Which means that we need to limit the time these guys spend on a

As you say, I don't think there is an off-the-shelf solution for this, but it
sounds like a nifty little project.
As a start, I think something like "sleep 60m && logout" inserted in one of
the login scripts would give you the big boot-out-the-door after an hour online.
You would have to log and total the time online and use something to re-write
the 60 to less as the day went by.
As it's a school you will have to go out of your way to make it especially
bulletproof, but I don't see any reason why it can't be done.
