[RHCE] Automatically. Logging off users after n secondsin uni x m/c.

[Frye, Matthew]

What's the benefit, if I may ask?  What's the benefit of forcing a user off
a system, especially if they are working on something?  Also, I can see a
use for this on 'n hours * 60' basis, but why in the short term (less than
one hour) ?
