[clug] bittorrent [SEC=PERSONAL]

[Roppola, Antti]

A universal solution might be to set up cron job to load an IPTables
rule to block all BT clients outside the specified hours. Shouldn't be
too hard to create from an existing shaping rule and could be used with
any client. Of course the assumption here is that you already have
something on your network running IPTables.
