Post subject: Use Internet connection two hours per day

Good morning. I wanted to know if it was possible to allow a user to access the internet only two hours a day ... expired two hours you do not log more Internet (Of course, two hours can be consumed as desired, eg 15 minutes then I get disconnected .... later I connect again, and so on ..)
The next day, two hours are restored automatically ... so for every day of the week ...
I look forward to hearing from you ....
One other thing: the program is only available in English or other languages are also available such as Italian?
Thanks to all

You need to run FirstSpot API call midnight everyday to update the user attribute "timeleft". The syntax is like:

fsapi.exe update_usr_attributes username=* timeleft=120

Refer to chapter 10 of firstspot_guide.pdf for details.

I read the manual but I did not understand much. Could you explain in detail the steps to be done? The result then is a .bat file? Thanks

Basically, the above API command will reset all your users timeleft (i.e. access minutes) attributes to 120 minutes (2 hours). Just put the above command Windows Task Scheduler and run it at 12am midnight everyday. Note that you don't need use .bat file and can run the command directly.
