Is there some application can install that will

a) prevent a user from logging in after a certain time of day

and

b) if that user is already logged in when that time comes around, will log him out

Thanks.

as far as i know there was a similar problem a while ago. He managed that problem with a script in the users dir.
But it could use up too many resources of the computer.
maybe theres a tool for that but i dont really think so. If i find something useful i'll post it here.

[edit]: couldn't find a tool. But neither the script. sry
But at least i found out, that he used crontab to check whether the user is logged in after a "certain time of day" and if so, he gets logged out.
that's what youre searching for,aren't you ?

Thanks for looking.

I found a lot about pam_time and am trying to digest it.

timekpr sounds perfecct, but it seems to be mostly about Ubuntu. It comes in a deb package. Do you think it would install and run on Kanotix?

Well, I am learning about pam_time. It seems that there needs to be a directory inside /etc/pam.d, named for each service to which a pam rule applies. There are many possible rules. So for example, there is a /etc/pam.d/login file. Inside that file there are lines which can refer the login service to one of the pam modules, such as pam_time.so. If pam.d/login tells login to do so, login will look in /etc/security/time.conf for instructions about how to handle login requests at certain hours of the day. The days and hours can be specified in /etc/security/time.conf.

So I think I need to know the name of the service that is linux's access to the internet, if I want to limit internet access hours. I created a file called /etc/pam.d/http, and inside it I put one line:

account requisite pam_time.so

Then in /etc/security/time.conf I put the line:

http;*;test;Al!2000-0800

I thought this would allow my user named "test" to access the internet only during the hours of 0800 to 2000. The ! means "all but"

But it didn't work.

Is "http" the correct name for the service?

Another angle I am exploring: perhaps my linux-pam or pam_time module is not loaded:

try it with bash:

logout after 100 mins and 19.59h
Code:

#!/bin/bash
while : ; do
((count++))
if [ $count -gt 100  -or `date +%H` -gt 19 ];then
dcop ksmserver ksmserver logout 0 0 0
fi
sleep 60
done

Alternative using cron - define limit and create sound files with shutdown warning. Well shutdown may be a bit brutal, but you can use it as example. Also you can extend it with timelimits.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
# Usage: save as /usr/local/bin/counter.sh
# chmod 700 /usr/local/bin/counter.sh
# crontab -e
# * * * * * /usr/local/bin/counter.sh
LIMIT_MIN=120
DIR=/var/log/counter
FILE=counter-$(date +%F).log
mkdir -p "$DIR"
chmod 700 "$DIR"
date +%H:%M >> "$DIR/$FILE"
MIN=$(($LIMIT_MIN + 1 - $(wc -l "$DIR/$FILE"|cut -f1 -d' ')))
[ -f /usr/local/share/counter/${MIN}m.ogg ] && aoss play /usr/local/share/counter/${MIN}m.ogg 2>/dev/null
if [ $(wc -l "$DIR/$FILE"|cut -f1 -d' ') -gt $LIMIT_MIN ]; then
 echo Timelimit reached. Shutting down!
 /sbin/poweroff
fi

Thanks. Those are some interesting ideas with bash (which I haven't done much in.) They may do what I have in mind.

Would those scripts apply to all users, or can I specify which ones?

Once logout or shutdown was forced on a user, because the time of day passing beyond the specified limit, what would happen if he/she tried to login again, a few minutes later?

Is there a service of a particular name that Kanotix uses for internet access?

How do I load a module that is not currently running?

thanks.

a script in users .kde-autostart runs only for the loggined user

modprobe modul (as root)

I still can't tell if pam_time is running on my system. And is it even something that "runs?" I can't make heads or tails out of the documentation on man pages or via google search.

None of these commands are recognized.

modprobe pam
modprobe pam_time
modprobe pam_time.so
modprobe time
modprobe time.so
modprobe linux-PAM

Is pam_time a module that needs to be loaded? If so, how does one load it?

Thanks.
