I can't verify this from the computer I am sitting at right now, but
you should be able to set this in the Admin tools --> Active Directory
Users and Comps --> User --> properties.
>From here edit the user to only be allowed to logon during specific
hours, and deny during specific hours. I know I've been able to do
this myself.
For the manager what exactly did you mean? That the manager must
basically "OK" each logon as it occurs???
