Is there a equalivent NDS or [RIPOFF]Active Directory[/RIPOFF] for Linux?

Eg. is there any sort of program out there has the capability to:

1. Allow or deny users to log on to particular machines.
2. Have login hours/times for particular users.
3. Account lockout for x amount of time after certain number incorrect password tries.

It's not free, but Novell's eDirectory for Linux is available.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for or not, but look in the man page for xinetd.conf, particularly the sections on "only_from", "no_access", and "access_times". It doesn't really give you control to the user level but rather to the IP address level.

If that doesn't do the trick, try this: http://acua.gist.net.au/
