Internet Cafe



I want to set up an internet cafe at a hostel and am investigating
various ways of going about things. I think windows 2000 would be the
best os to have the clients on, but the biggest problem is logging the
pc's out when their credit expires.

I'm a strong advocate of Debian GNU/Linux and open source so I would
liie to use an opensource solution but not too sure if the clientele
would be that comfortable with X. That being said, if I decide to go
down the linux path, what would be the best way to log a workstation out
when credit expires? I rekon it's a matter of creating a simple TCP/IP
connection to a  server and listening to logout requests :/

Cheers

Chris
