I think what Michael is asking is whether there is an easy way to
calculate Session-Time according to the time of day.
eg: normal max session is 3 hours (10800)
but this user is restricted to to having their connection complete by
say 18:00 and they ring in at 17:45 so their Session-time should now be
equal to 15 minutes = 900 seconds
In Michael's case the NAS does support session time or I suppose he
wouldn't be asking :-) I think Ascend and tigris is the answer.....
