pfSense

I'd like to let my kids use the net between certain hours, but deny them after bedtime.

Could the pfSense user manager have a field to select a Time Schedule where the user is allowed to login ?

Time Schedules already exist and are used in firewall rules, this would use the same object definition to control when users can use captive portal.

I understand MS Active Directory has "dialin hours" which would be vaguely similar, however I don't have an AD.

I've tried using a time schedule in a firewall deny rule, but its pretty ugly by comparison. The user simply gets a timeout rather than a useful "denied" error.
