Log out idling user

Hi Guys,

I am running HPUX 10.20b. Is it possible to logout remote user who has been idling for a certain period?

Best regards
Henry

Re: Log out idling user

hi,

use TMOUT parameter in /etc/profile (for all users) or /~username/.profile (individual user).

For example,

TMOUT=1800
readonly TMOUT

this will terminate the idle session after 1800 seconds.

regards.
