Hi,

I used to add this line to /etc/profile:

  export TMOUT=600

which should automatically logout a user for inactivity.  I've used this
with slackware and from Mandrake 7 to 8.1.  But somehow, its no longer
working with Mandrake 8.2.

When one logs in now, it says:

    bash: TMOUT: readonly variable

Does anybody have an idea what maybe causing this?

Thanks!

God bless.

William
