well..... suppose I've 5 clients in my office ( say A,B, C, D, E )

A,B,C, or D) gets

Define "access internet".....
Do you mean *all* protocols? So, you want to stop a 5th system from
browsing,
ftp,
ssh, ntp, pop, imap, etc? So, if A, B, C, and D are using these
protocols...which
can happen without direct user input (pop/imap polls, facebook and
rss feed
updates,
etc.) you want to block E for an indeterminate amount of time?
exactly
Seriously?
yes, its my client's requirement ...... I can understand its not the
way to go
.... but he pays me for this ... I'm a service provider .. I have to
do what
they said and want to do
I think you need to state the problem you are trying to solve....not
ask for a
solution which really sounds wrong headed.
If A, B, C, and D are browsing CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and FoxNews is the
limit on
E that he cannot browse CBS or that he cannot make an ftp file
transfer or
his machine cannot attempt an NTP clock synchronization until one of the
others quits using the network?
if A,B,C and D are using Internet then E must not have Internet access ,
like web-browsing, send/receive email, ftp Etc....
if it can be achieved by proxy (squid like) .. I can suggest them
