I am using Windows XP at home and I would like to limit certain family
members to use computer only at certain period. How can I configure my XP
to do so.

Thanks.

Andrew.
 
Log in as admin and on the command prompt type :

net user username /times:M,4AM-5PM;T,1PM-3PM

Where M stands for monday, etc etc. use

net user username /times:all

to allow access always.

In addition, the 'net user /times' command limits only logon time. There is
no way to logoff a client forcibly without a domain controller.
Not sure though 'net user /time' will work on XP Home.
 
That is very true and even in a domain it will not force you off of the local
computer, just to domain resources. A possible fix is an AT command to schedule a
forced logoff shortly after a users logoff time though that may cause loss of data.
Of course the AT command is not user specific either, though a user without
restrictions would be allowed to log back on. -- Steve
