Ability to add a entries to ALLOW.CSF with timelimits

[JDStallings]

The other day we had an issue where we needed to open up SSH to cPANEL so they could log in and resolve an issue with PURE-FTP.
Once they were completed we needed to remove/comment out their entries.

It would be great if you could add an entry like this to the allow:

[INDENT]d=9999:s=201.211.212.213:expire=2d # cPANEL Support[/INDENT]

then two days after you entered this allow, it would remove itself. Even better if it updated the entry with a # in the beginning to comment it out so you would easily be able to add it back the next time they needed access to your server.

This way you would not have to worry about when they were finished working on the server, etc.

Also a big PLUS if you tell a client they will be provided SSH to their account for the next 36 hours you could add

[INDENT]d=9999:s=201.211.212.213:expire=36h # Temp Client SSH - BOB [/INDENT]

great idea, hope this will be implemented in a future version of csf

This is now implemented with the csf --tempallow, etc, CLI and UI options.
