Specify Allowed Times for users to log on !TG 04-10-2008

I'm specifically looking to disable logon for terminal services between
certain times, but would like to limit access for desktop users as well if
possible.
Something similar to the time limits in terminal services (ie, active,
disconnected and idle session limits) and the ability to log off the user if
the limit is reached. In this case the user would be logged off if the hour
is reached (ie 11pm to 4 am).

IMHO, the attribute in active directory that specifies the hours during
which an account may or may not logon, is only that. If you can only logon
from 8am to 4pm, you can logon at 3:59pm and stay logged on for as long as
you want. AD will not force a logoff automatically, however, you might be
able to develop a scheduled task that would identify those accounts logged
on outside of their allowed times, and forcefully log them off. I'm not
sure, though, if the aggravation caused would be worth the apparent benefit.
