This is still possible on W2K Pro just not with the tools given. You can do
one of the following
1. Write a script that knows how to set hours.
2. Write a program that displays a pretty GUI and then knows how to set
hours
3. Use user manager from domains from an NT4 machine to modify the W2K Pro
machine
4. Use Net User and the proper parameter
>From the NET USER Command NT4 help (this info doesn't exist in the W2K help)
/times:{times | all}
Specifies the times the user is allowed to use the computer. The times value
is expressed as day[-day][,day[-day]] ,time[-time][,time[-
time]], limited to 1-hour time increments. Days can be spelled out or
abbreviated (M,T,W,Th,F,Sa,Su). Hours can be 12- or 24-hour notation. For
12-hour notation, use AM, PM, or A.M., P.M. The value all means a user can
always log on. A null value (blank) means a user can never log on. Separate
day and time with commas, and units of day and time with semicolons (for
example, M,4AM-5PM;T,1PM-3PM). Do not use spaces when designating /times.
