I deleted the part that sets it readonly, but I don't recommend doing that till someone explains why it's there in the first place. -- Murray J.

Hi Murry,
Did you add "export TMOUT=0" to your .bashrc in effort to override the
defaults set in msec? When I did I got the error you are reporting. That
variable is set when /etc/sysconfig/msec is imported into the main
system profile. However, altering that file will NOT stop the default
auto-logout behavior -- msec will regenerate /etc/sysconfig/msec. You
need to change the actual msec script by using an override value in
/etc/security/msec/level.local. So create a file
/etc/security/msec/level.local that contains:
msec.set_shell_variable('TMOUT', 0) <-- this is the wrong syntax, btw.
I am still trying to locate the right syntax.
