Resrticting User Access

[CeNo]

All,

I have a standalone pc, running XP Pro SP2 2149, with internet connection.

I wish to be able to restrict the times of day and length of time that my
kids have access to the machine.

Is it possible to be able to restrict access, for example - mon-fri, 6
through 9pm?

Any help much appreciated.

CeNo.

Many thanks Carey...

Hi

Note that the instructions on that Web page will not logoff the user
when time is up.

You will need 3rd party software to be able to do this, e.g. the
program "1st Security Center" would maybe cover your requirement:

The powerful feature "User Working Time" allows you to limit working
time for your children , office colleagues , students and so on. You
can define several time intervals and time durations to manage users
working time very easy.

The application in the link below is a lot more limited, but it can
e.g. force a logoff/shutdown at a set time or after a time duration
(but it looks like this is computer based and not user based):
