Um...it can't be...so... That's ok. Thanks. I'll take care of it via the
router.

Thanks again to David for his detailed explanation. Do you find it
frustrating

There's a screen for that.
Its one of the tabs under Parental Controls.

Precisely right. I would only add that fast user switching can be used
to quickly flip between the two accounts.
Unfortunately the pissing and moaning "you can't do it" crowd took
over the topic.
BTW, I'm surprised that a Mac owner would be interested in such
regressive parenting methods.
I've also heard a way around the application limit is instead of launching
the app itself, you launch a file that in turn launces the app. Sound right
or is that way off?
Thanks for the feedback on this, instead of setting up two accounts, it's
easier to just use the router, I can set specific ti
As others have pointed out, Accounts in System Preferences has
parental controls which allow you to limit computer time or specific
applications, but not time for particular applications. However, your
friend could set up two accounts and limit internet applications but
not time on one account
Dad wanted complete no access except when specified. LIke I said I have a
router that will do it, but I was hoping it could be done at the user level.

Easier to go thru the router, I've got one laying around with DDWRT on it.
Just wanted to know if I could go through the OS.

That's what I thought, that I'd have to go to the router for such control.

You can't. At least, not as far as I can see. I set up a test account
with Parental Controls, and the only time limits

I've got a friend with a os x machine and he wants to limit his sons

internet connectivity to a specified time period. Any advice appreciated.
