I'm looking for open source software for linux, running on a firewall,
where I can authenticate via a web interface with username/password to
enable access for my current ip for a certain time (like one hour or
so).

nothing wrong with PERL, but as it is quite difficult to write safe
software, I'm looking for a complete software package providing a web
interface, something like the CheckPoint-Firewall provides, where you
have to authenticate via a webpage to activate your account before you
can access the firewall (with a idle timeout).
Thanks

You need an application level gateway (proxy) for this cause
Packet-filtering rules are usually not manipulated by user interaction.
And you probably need one that supports a lot of protocols. For a few
protocols like http and ftp squid offers what you want but squid does not
support nntp, smtp ...

Sounds like some form of hotspot or captive portal. Google would be your
friend here, to really get good advice more complete specs of your goal
might help to get better answers.
