Make a cron that shuts system down.

59 23 * * * shutdown -h 0 # shut system down
0 19 * * * ifconfig eth0 down # turn off firewall after work hours

The time and date fields are:
field allowed values

minute 0-59
hour 0-23
day of month 1-31
month 1-12 (or names, see below)
day of week 0-7 (0 or 7 is Sun, or use names)
A field may be an asterisk (*), which always stands for
ââfirst-lastââ.
