A very quick check of the FAQ and the last 3 mo. archives did not turn up
this question, so forgive me if it is a FAQ.

I work in a development shop with a bunch of programmers who march to thier
own drum. Unfortunatly the one drum they all march to has them leaving
windows up for a week or more idle.

Is there a way to automaticly kill processes that have an idle time of more
than a preset value?

Baring that, is there an easy way to logout idle users after a given amount
of time?

We are running 3.2-3 and 3.2c with an upgrade to 3.2d planned for both in
the near future.

Of course, I will summerize.

Thanks,
-cliff
