You Asked

I'm have been asked if there is a way to limit a userid logins to certain times of day.

Example: user test1 can only login between 17:00 and 22:00.

I have not found anything in the docs or on the web talking about if this is possible or not. If it is possible, please let me know how this can be done.

Thanks for you time,
Rob

you can easily use a logon trigger to prevent logons by anyone at any time.

if ( user = 'TEST1' and NOT to_char(sysdate,'hh24') between '17' and '22' )
then
raise_application_error( -20000, 'No, not now' );
end if;
