Alan, many thanks !
although it took me some time, "simple Math" isn't one of my real strenghts
and I still haven't fully understood ;), I worked out now to disconnect at 04:00 CEST
/ 03:00 CET
(Timestamp is GMT, I should have remembered):
Session-Timeout = `%{expr:86400 - ((%l - 7200) %% 86400)}`

Math. See rlm_expr.
To disconnect people at midnight every day, calculate the time left
until the next midnight.
Session-Timeout := `%{expr: ((%l + 86399) %% 86400) - %l}`
To disconnect people at 3:30... it gets a little more complicated.
Time since the previous midnight:
%l - (%l %% 86400)
Time since the previous 3:30am:
(%l - 12600) - ((%l - 12600) %% 86400)
Time until the next 3:30 am is one day, less the time since the
previous 3:30 am.
86400 - (%l - 12600) - ((%l - 12600) %% 86400)
Or,
86400 + 12600 + ((%l - 12600) %% 86400) - %l.
e.g. "one day, plus time until 3:30, plus the time of the previous
day it was 3:30, and subtract from that the current time".
The complicated nature of the calculation is due to the fact that
when people log in at 02:30, you want to disconnect them at 03:30, and
when they log in at 04:30, to disconnect at the next 03:30.
You can't do comparisons in rlm_expr, so it's easier to make the
calculations a little more complex.
