If you set a time limit for computer usage, users who meet their daily time limits can’t log in until the next day when their quota is reset. You can set different time limits for weekdays (Monday through Friday) and weekends (Saturday and Sunday). The time limit can range from 30 minutes to 8 hours.
If you set a curfew, users can’t log in during the days and times you specify. If a user is logged in when their curfew starts, the user is immediately logged out. You can set different times for weekdays (denying access Sunday nights through Thursday nights) and weekends (Friday and Saturday nights).
