Log off idle users

[kovax]

Is there a way to log off idle users automatically? Is there a script or something like that out there that would do this?

Thanks

Is this for security reasons or just system resource/cleanup reasons? From a shell level or desktop level? For example, you can add "TMOUT" to the bash profile which will automatically exit the shell (if you are ssh'd in to a system or have a shell windows open). If you are talking about having a desktop session logged out that's a little different. It would make sense to have the screensaver set up to log a person out of a desktop session. Not sure off the top of my head on that but shouldn't be hard to figure something out. Or are you talking any process by a normal user? That might be a little more difficult and may have unintended consequences.

It is for security reasons. I have a few users that seem to stay logged on for days of inactivity. I am trying to implement a policy to log them out. This is for some of my application servers.
