Hi,

the plugin itself can't disconnect a user, but OpenVPN re-authenticates a user 
during a connection periodically.
So the user will be disconnected after some time, even he is connected.

You can configure the re-authentication interval with the OpenVPN options

[ --reneg-bytes n ] [ --reneg-pkts n ] [ --reneg-sec n ]

For example if you use "--reneg-sec 60", in the worst case the user will be 
connected 60 seconds after the time limit was reached.

I hope, this solves your problem.

Ralf
