Date and Time based authorization ???

[Marcelo Freitas]

Thanks Kirk for the response ...

I was asking because I didn't know about Login-Time and that solves my
problem ...

But I didn't understanding your solution ... Checking for holidays would
be nice ...
but how would I implement that ? how would this script be called at the
arrival of the request's packet ?

Thanks again,

Hello, I'm new to this list, but would the date command help? Maybe from
a script, "date +%A" and then check for a return of "Saturday" or
"Sunday"? Are you going to need to check for holidays?
