[Martin P.J. Zinser]

Here is what my man pages for wu.ftpd says

FTPD(8) FTPD(8)



NAME
ftpd - DARPA Internet File Transfer Protocol server

SYNOPSIS
ftpd [ -d ] [ -v ] [ -l ] [ -ttimeout ] [ -Tmaxtimeout ] [
-a ] [ -A ] [ -L ] [ -i ] [ -o ] -uumask ]


you would specify the parameters in your (x)inetd config

Greetings, Martin

usually in the ftpacess file.

ftp doesn't read the environment so the TMOUT variable won't help.

If it's vsftpd installed -edit the /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf and change the line with "idle_session_timeout=600" to suit your needs.....
Best Regards
