Linux/Squid/IPtables Cybercafe solution

by steve cody . Updated 22 years, 11 months ago

I need to find a FREE solution for a non-profit Cybercafe. I’m setting up their Internet access with a Redhat 9 system and I need the appropriate software to manage user’s Internet access.

I will give all the points to whoever can find software for me that handles the following:

Permit individual user’s access to the Internet by login name
Track user’s time and kill user’s Internet connection when time is complete
Keep user data base that maintains user account information, login name,time remaining, other time data, and possible usage data.
Web administrative interface to control the access.
Must be free/open source software running on Redhat 9.

I think this is it. Please ask if you have additional questions, or if you think my requirements are unrealistic.
