I imagine you could cron an iptables command (well two, one to accept and then one to deny an hour later). I'm not familiar with SuSEfirewall2, not sure if raw iptables commands are compatible with it. Joel Michael James wrote:
My teenage daughter spends all her time at home chatting on MSN. It distracts her completely from being civil to her family and actually concentrating on her homework.
It's hard to ration because she does (sometimes) use her computer for study. If I just turn off her access to the internet she will appear with some reason she needs to connect.
How can I turn on a block on MSN so there is only 1 hour a day it works?
The house server (Suse8.2 soon to be 9.0) has the ADSL connection and runs SuSEfirewall2, NAT, squid, DNS, etc.
Thanks for any pointers, michaelj
PS: The solution need not be very watertight, I would be delighted if she learned enough about networks to circumvent it.
