[newbie] auto logout
Is there a way to auto logout inactive users? I have seen something about TMOUT variable, but when I set it in /etc/profile and login at console I get bash: TMOUT read only or something similar. So my question is how do I get TMOUT to work? Also does TMOUT work for users who are using X, gnome, kde, ect.? If not how could I set an auto logout for those applications? Thanks for all the help.

I'm curios about the different file systems available to linux. Specifically are there certain file systems that are better for nfs partitions or other types of servers. What are the advantages of and/or disadvantages of xfs, ext3, etc. Any comments and links are greatly appreciated. Dan Cox Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
