now we had problems that the primary link went down on a friday and so the backup link came up and stayed the whole weekend - but no one needed it - because the backup should only be there on weekdays.
so i thought about time-based acl for the dialer-list which is no problem and good documented on cco.
BUT:
what about the dialer-watch command ??
is it possible to make this watch time-based too ??
