Write the script in perl and chmod it to 755. Then use cron to schedule it. Here's a tutorial to show you how: http://www.unixgeeks.org/security/newbie/unix/cron-1.html

Damn stateless nature of HTTP, hey everyone, can someone point me or give me
an idea on how I would automatically log out (destroy user sessions and make
note of it in the database) on some type of schedule. I have designed a
security system that depends upon people logging out to determine the amount
of time they have accumalated on their accounts. Of course people do not
always (never) do this, so I need a way to do it for them. We are running
redhat linux, I am sure there is a way to say run a certain script at a
certain time blah blah etc etc. But I am only a programmer, and am
absolutely clueless on the finer points of nix. I can write a script in
perl, php, java, u name it, but how do I have it run on a set schedule?
Thanks
