Once you have a Linux solution, which should not be too 
difficult, the python `Front end' should follow along easily.

But do you need to log them off at all ? Why not just allow
them to stay on, and charge it to their bill ? They are
likely to get pretty annoyed if you log them off half way 
through writing an important letter.

The Linux log files will tell you to the second when they 
logged off and when they logged on.

Linux solution or not, python may come into it. A Zope
server must surely be one of the easiest to set up, and
you could provide your guests and staff with all sorts
of desirable facilities.
