One way to do that is to redirect the client/connection to a webpage
that asks for a user and password, which when validated inserts
the client IP address / mac address as a dynamic rule in the firewall
and some parallel control using crontab (or custom way) to delete the rule
after an amount of time...
You can do this with squid + apache + php + postgresql + pf/ipfw...
Just to start thinking on a complete solution.. ;-)

Subject: users based on time+ath (Please)
Hello gurus,
Please, Please! if someone can help me, how to setup any an
accounts system based on time and auth
I'm On FreeBSD 6.1R its acting as a internet gateway for a comlex
of 30 appartments. the internet to this box is connected thro a dsl
and its up/running,
Well, We want to bill whoever sharing our internet connection on a
monthly bases so basically, I want to release internet access based
on time+auth. and to manage those users.
I have been told to use squid.
as i know squid is a cache server?
just, where to start to setup a system, that will force the user
to enter a user/password to connect to the internet? considering my
freebsd is the gateway? how to manage those users? any packages,
what shall i do? My manager would kill if i dunt accomplish this
mission :(
Marwan
