Dear All,
recently one of my friend came to me and asked to setup a proxy server for his cyber cafe, though the setup and configuration is not an issue but the control/management of user with time boundation is!!!
what I mean is He need to have time bounded user access, as what happens in cybercafe is a user comes in, a username and password is provided to him with a validity in time e.g. 1Hrs., 2Hrs. etc as per the charge and time decided by the cafe owner and requested by the user, so I am looking for such a tool which can do the same for such a cybercafe based on squid and linux as a platform.
In this regard I need help from you to guide me if there is such a tool exists or some pointer to acheive this.

I think squid can do the job. You'll have to check up in the man pages.
